Battle of Donbas (apr 18, 2022 – sep 30, 2022)

Description:

AKA Donbas Offensive

I am defining the end of this offensive by when the announcement of annexation was made by Russia (https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-putin-signs-documents-to-unlawfully-claim-4-ukrainian-regions-in/), since the term battle of donbas is not commonly found and its hard to figure out the end

I am also putting the result as inconclusive because I've read the consensus of wikipedia editors and I agree. While Russia did capture most of the desired regions in this offensive, they failed to completely control it and to the day I write this message, has still not managed to completely control it. However it was far from a Ukrainian victory, and to be clear if I could only mark this as a victory for one of the two sides I would give the victory to Russia.
