This was reported by the influential Reuters news agency, citing three independent sources close to the Kremlin. Zamin.uz provides details on the Russian leadership's front-line plans and the internal situation within Kremlin circles.

Those who proposed a 'ceasefire' were criticized

According to one of the agency's interlocutors, Vladimir Putin currently holds an "absolutely uncompromising position" regarding the full control of the remaining unoccupied parts of the Donetsk region.

Internal sources in the Kremlin revealed a very interesting detail:

• A group of advisors recently suggested to the Russian president that he temporarily halt the war on the front line and introduce a ceasefire regime However, Putin sharply criticized the plan of this group of advisors and rejected the proposal.

• Insiders state that the Russian leader is firmly "convinced" that his military will soon fully occupy the entire Donbas region.

• Strikes on oil refineries have further angered Putin

sources explain that the intensification of drone and missile strikes by Ukraine on oil refineries (NPZ) within Russian territory has not yielded the expected result. On the contrary, this situation has further strengthened Putin's determination to continue combat operations to the end.

However, exactly what form this escalation will take and in which direction it will be carried out has not been disclosed.

"Russia is always ready to resolve the conflict peacefully. However, our country has sufficient military and economic potential to act independently and continue the special military operation to the end, without being dependent on anyone."
