[ Donetsk Front + Analysis ] Both sides launch attacks along the frontline; Defense-in-Depth is DEEP

Breaking news from the Donetsk Front: Russia continue to push and put pressure on the Ukrainian defense at Marinka, Pobjeda and Novomykhailivka – something that Russia had been trying months, but to little progress.
