Looks like a couple major EU countries are purposefully providing too little too late. Russia has thrown everything they have at these sectors and are slowly grinding down the UAF.

Definitely not looking good for the UA army now, no matter how hard Reddit or Western news tries to spin it. Fact is, a lot of soldier's simply don't have the necessary equipment they need to keep pushing. It's all over the various Kharkiv Telegram chats how soldiers are eager to keep liberating villages in that region, yet don't have the weapons and equipment they need to continue onward, and instead are sitting back as the Russians slowly but surely dig in and take back settlements. Lots of UA soldiers getting frustrated at the lack of preparedness on their end.
Lots of big talk of the land-lease bill and other big aid supposedly coming in, but soldiers aren't seeing it quite yet at the scale they need. Here's hoping it comes sooner than later, as the Russians have altered their tactics recently and aren't goofing around anymore. Hopefully Ukraine can hold out a bit longer until more aid arrives, along with whatever land-lease is supposed to do (aka. turn the tide), but it's getting brutal at this point.
