  1. This explains the recent increase in Russian tank loses.

  2. It a desperate attempt to stall out the southern offensive.

    However as we have seen this war is an artillery war and hyper favors the defender right now.

    Further ukraine is arguably straight up winning in the artillery section now.

    Finally the logistic to this sector is built on a single route. Find the depots hit them and this won’t go anywhere

  3. This is what, Russia’s 7th attempt at an offensive since Ukraine started theirs?

    The fact that they’ve made this many attempts at an offensive over the course of a single Ukrainian attempt should tell you everything you need to know about how much effort and planning Russia has put into it. As well as their chances of success.

    As a bit of a history buff, I can tell you that this kind of wild flailing is indicative of some of the most incompetent military leaderships in history. Again, contrast with Ukraine’s single largescale 2 month long offensive with 6 months of preparation if you want to know what a proper offensive should look like. Russia hasn’t even spent a week preparing since their last attempt by comparison.

  4. You hate that but on the other hand it is the best way to eliminate the most ruzzian personnel and equipment in the shortest time.

  5. So that they can die slightly further away from Mordor… hope it’s worth it!
