The news out of Ukraine has been slow as of late.
The Little Green Men have taken some OSCE observers hostage. The LGM claim the OSCE had a spy amongst them.
The LGM have retreated from the Kramatorsk airport according to reports.
They have instead taken Kranatorskogo's airport.
They have seized the broadcasting station in Donetsk and turned off the Ukrainian channels. They have substituted Russian channels instead.
There have been small clashes everywhere, but they are relatively small.
The counter offensive seems to have largely paused. This is probably because of the OSCE hostages the Little Green Men have taken. As of now, the Ukrainian army could crush Slavyansk. They have around 15k troops ringing the city.
The Russians have complained of the troops and moved theirs even closer to border.
The US is preparing more sanctions. This time its aimed at the defense and - supposedly - energy industries. They ought to hit the financial industry.
The 173rd Airborne Brigade has been deployed to the Baltics. Sadly, not Ukraine.
