Just some 50,000 inhabitants. So a small town, or big village. But combat had been raging there for weeks. The Army of the Russian Federation appears to have seized it. Its still a pinprick, but can create a dangerous situation for Ukraine's Donbass Army. It could develop into a Sedan for Ukraine if forces are not rushed to plug that gap. Izyum sits to the south of Kharkiv, but also behind the Ukrainian Armies deployed to the east in Donbass to hold the line against the separatist Republics. Can the Armies of the Federation exploit that gap? Can Ukraine rush in forces to plug that gap?
Opinions appear to suggest that the areas around the little town of Izyum may draw a lot of attention in the near future
