UKRAINE has managed to cut Russia's two-pronged frontline incursion in half in the latest major blow to Vladimir Putin.
Moscow suddenly breached an area in the Donetsk region as a reported 110,000 troops advanced on the eastern front being swiftly contained and pushed back.

Putin's bloodthirsty forces reportedly advanced by at least 10km north in two prongs as part of his attempt to capture the entire Donetsk region.
The terrifying development came just days before the Alaska summit with Donald Trump and was seen as a warmongering Putin trying to gain the upper hand ahead of the talks.
Moscow currently controls over 70 per cent of the highly-contested Donetsk region.
Capturing it entirely would allow Putin's forces to cause major disruption to supply lines on the eastern front and force Ukraine into submission.
Despite the Russians making an initial burst into Ukrainian territory these advances soon petered out.
Ukrainian troops have since been able to drive the enemy away from positions near Rubizhne, Zolotyi Kolodiaz, Vesele, Vilne Shakhove, Nikanorivka, and Sukhotske, according to data from DeepState.
Fierce battles erupted near the coal mining town Dobropillia with the 1st Corps of the Ukrainian National Guard announcing several hundred casualties for the Russians.
The valiant corps also destroyed a Russian tank, took out two IFVs and managed to damage 37 light vehicles and three artillery pieces.
President Volodymyr Zelensky also publicly praised the 1st Corps as well as several other units working in the Donetsk region in recent days.
Speaking on X today, he said: "We are defending our positions along the entire front line.
Donald Trump vows full peace deal not 'mere ceasefire' after Alaska summit as Zelensky to head to White House
"For the second day in a row, we have achieved successes in some extremely difficult areas in the Donetsk region – in the direction of Dobropillia and Pokrovsk.
"The destruction of the occupiers who tried to infiltrate deeper into our positions continues."
Zelensky, who is now planning to meet Trump at the White House on Monday to discuss a peace deal to end the war, added: "I am grateful to all our warriors for their resilience."
He also made a special shout out to the units of the 93rd Separate Mechanized Brigade 'Kholodnyi Yar' squad.
Footage of the resilient forces battling on the ground and in the air in the village of Vesele shows them eliminating dozens of Putin's men.
A clip shows a kamikaze drone smashing straight into two bumbling troops as they venture across a road.
Another shows a missile being dropped from the sky and exploding upon impact as it hits its Russia target below.
The Kholodnyi Yar unit were even responsible for capturing several soldiers and making them prisoners of war.
Has the Alaska summit helped broker a peace deal?
AS Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin both flew out of Alaska on Friday it appeared as though the summit was an utter failure in the eyes of Ukraine.
There had been no agreements on a peace deal as Trump appeared to be hesitant to truly reveal what demands Putin was making.
But a few hours after the meeting ended Trump took to social media to reveal the meeting was a success in his eyes.
Trump said Russia and Ukraine both believe a full peace deal is "the best way" to end the war - rather than a short term ceasefire.
Now diplomatic sources have revealed some of the initial details of the potential agreement, according to news agency AFP.
The US has reportedly proposed an agreement that would see Ukraine not join Nato - but instead be offered Nato-esque protections similar to Article 5.
Article 5 on Nato's founding treaty agrees collective defense - meaning allies see an attack on one as an attack on all of them.
Trump reportedly floated the plan with Volodymyr Zelensky and European leaders during a call after his meeting with Putin.
The US President is set to discuss the terms of an agreement with Zelensky on Monday when he travels to the White House.
Zelensky did not directly address any potential plan but he did say on X: "We discussed positive signals from the American side regarding participation in guaranteeing security for Ukraine."
