There is an interesting line in Reuters daily update on Ukraine which notes that the intensity of Russian attacks appears to have been declining. It writes:
The average number of daily Russian attacks on the frontline reported by Ukraine’s general staff has declined for four straight weeks since the beginning of March, to 69 in the past seven days from 124 in the week of March 1-7. Just 57 attacks were reported on Wednesday.
Reuters journalists near the front west of Bakhmut and further north also reported a notable decline in the intensity of Russian attacks last week.
