This of course requires the Central Military District, the 41st Combined Arms Army, and the 2nd Combined Arms Army, among others, to attempt another river crossing. However, with significant pressure on Sloviansk from the west, I believe they might succeed.

RU’s potential northern assault plan: Encirclement and supply line blockades
After those pieces are in place, I think RU will do this. Main assault from the north. One force to block the railway and road supply from the west. One force to block Bakhmut/Kramatorsk supply/reinforcement. (Yes Encircle, Putler fans are gonna go crazy, hide your goats)

Supplies and reinforcements held back by Ukrainian offensives in Izium and Lyman
They are pumping supplies and reinforcements in to the area. However a few things are holding them back, one is the UA offensive in Izium, they also need to wait for the central district units in the Lyman area to resupply and recover after the Lyman area offensive.

Russian forces need crossings at Pryshyb, Tetyanivka, and Sviatohirsk monastery bridge
For this to success RU forces would need a few crossings, to secure the main supply route I would pick these locations. Pontoon bridges in Pryshyb and Tetyanivka to secure the area. To secure a third crossing I think they would repair the bridge at the Sviatohirsk Cave Monastery.
