May 16, 2025

Russia is losing ground in eastern Ukraine as its forces struggle to hold positions in key towns like Pokrovsk.

In this exclusive interview, military analyst Jonathan MS Pearce of ATP Geopolitics breaks down how Ukraine’s battlefield momentum is accelerating – thanks in part to rising domestic artillery production that is reshaping the war’s trajectory and undermining Russia’s ability to sustain its occupation.

But Ukraine’s fight isn’t just on the front lines. Around the world, millions are mobilizing online – using social media to counter Russian propaganda and to fundraise for Ukraine’s defense.

From drones to medical supplies, international supporters have delivered vital resources, helping Ukraine defy expectations both militarily and strategically.
