The 76th air assault divisions, which according to Russian doctrine is their main reserve force, has been committed in the Robotyne Axis. This will either stop the Ukrainian advance, or spell the end of Russias ability to plug gaps in their defensive lines!

Welcome them to the front with some cluster munitions.
Fertilize with them…./
By now Moscovya has nothing but reserves, drunk dumb Jelcins on the frontline.
Unfortunately, that meat can kill too.
If the 73rd is broken here in an attempt to stop this breakthrough. What’s there behind them to fill the gap? If anything?
Steel rain.
Tokmak is Ukraine! I hope they make it to Tolmak by September!
My prayers are with the Ukrainians .
I hope they can be dealt with efficiently as possible. Far too much Ukrainian blood has already been spilled removing the orc infestation.
Remove the orcs, with extreme prejudice.

If this report is true it would appear Russia just pushed all their chips into the middle of the table the next week or so will be pretty decisive. If Ukraine can break these reserves the Russians don’t appear to have any other large formations readily available.
Rain hell from above!
Keep them running. This will weekend the Russian forces elsewhere. And it gives the AFU more targets.
If that is the case then those soldiers are clusterfucked. Airborne units are designed for quick strikes but lack the heavy weaponry for prolonged engagements. Perhaps they have gained some now but I suspect this unit will get chewed up pretty quick. In Russian circles Airborne are their elite but their elite standard is very sub-par compared to the NATO standard.
I think this movement if correct will be welcomed by Ukraine as an opportunity to further degrade meaningful combat ability that still exists within ruzzian military in Ukraine. And leave all other areas of the front more exposed.
yeah those counter attacks generally don’t go well. Russia is good in static warfare but the minute they need to be flexible they get destroyed pretty quick. im pretty sure UA has local artillery dominance as well and by now they know how it works. they grab land, RU counterattacks. first month of the offensive that worked for RU but nowadays we see UA army advancing 1 day after counterattack. as if they were counting on it

That kind of move looks pretty desperate. If Ukraine manages to break those reserves, the Russians will be in a very bad situation. Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦
I’m sure that Russia will continue to be able to plug gaps in its defensive lines for quite some time to come. They will run out of areas of Ukraine to hold before they run out of warm bodies to prod into the line of fire of approaching Ukrainian forces.
Not to mention T-55s that they can push into place. Russia still has *a fuckton* of T-55s. Maybe if they line them all up and weld them together, they can form a great big ferrous wall. A kind of curtain you could call it…
But no, for real though, it may be that Russia is nearing the end of its remaining truly effective ground forces, and that will definitely mean the acceleration of the Ukrainian tempo… but don’t let’s all get excited about the idea that Russia might somehow be literally about to run out of people. They are so not.
