Once again, we have another instance of people inventing ludicrous timelines and deadlines for Russian offensives, and then claiming Russia "failed" when they eventually don't reach these fake deadlines.
ISW is one of the biggest users of this propaganda tactic, aimed at manipulating battlefield success. The only person who has claimed Russia has set a deadline to capture the rest of Donbas by the end of 2026 is Zelensky, not Putin, or any Russian official. There is exactly zero evidence beyond Zelensky's word that Russia has set a goal of capturing Donbas by the end of the year.
The earliest example of this propaganda tactic being used was at the very beginning of the war, where former U.S. General Miley claimed in an interview with Fox News that Russia would likely be able to take Kyiv in 3 days. This resulted in people hallucinating that Russian officials, or even Putin himself, stated that it would be a "3 day special military operation", ultimately creating that whole "Kyiv in 3 days" meme. Now I'm not doubting that Russia probably thought the war would be over in less than 4 years, but this doesn't change the fact that these false timelines being created are only used for propaganda purposes.
Any real analyst, Pro-Russian or Pro-Ukrainian, generally agrees that Russia will likely not be able to capture the rest of Donbas by December 31 2026. This new timeline is invented purely for the purpose of saying in 6 months time that Russia failed in their offensive goals, and then spinning this into a narrative that is heavily skewed in favour of Ukraine.

The situation in Sumy...a systematic dismantling of infrastructure and military units is taking place.
The situation around Sumy...once again, the Russians are near, very near, follow the maps, but realise that there's a giant forest next to the city where eyes don't see.

Keep in mind, the massive forests north of Sumy are perfect for deep DRG infiltrations behind Ukrainian lines.
In an age of drone warfare, where not being spotted is the number one priority, and where neither side has significant infantry accumulations close to the frontline, deep infiltrations like this become more and more likely to take place.
