Just want to thank the journalists for using “eastern” rather than “left”. Can never manage to get my head around left-right banks of rivers.
I hope they really gain significant ground there. It’s a very difficult and dangerous position.
moskovian milli bloggers have been moaning for days so glad the wankers are right

Let it be true.
If they attempt a counter offensive this year they should focus on the bridgehrad
Nice. I’m personally hoping that this’ll lead to better shots at Russian oil refineries, especially with their current export pause starting from March 1st.
The main thing is that it still exists. It’s another one of those areas with massively asymmetric loss ratios. I don’t think gaining ground is even the point, the point is forcing Russia to lose a lot of equipment trying to take out the bridgehead.
That said if they can keep it long enough and inflict enough damage then Russia will be forced to pull back a significant amount. Though I think they’re too stupid to do that anytime soon.
As horrible a position as it is for the ukranians consider what it means.
This area is not fortified to the same degree, ukraines incursion is inherently easy to defend and russias is much harder to reinforce.
Its very exciting if russia has diverted resources and UAF can make proper expansions and river crossings less dangerous.
