Russian Forces in the Northern Front

Russian forces along the general offensive and a sort of siversky denets line, haven't been able to gain much ground in the past week. My personal sense on it, thi based on very imperfect information, is that the russian military's been pretty cautious and oriented towards reducing losses. This offensivean they've been bit more organized and coordinated, but mostly leveraging fires and trying to avoid a further loss of man power.
