| #8 Quote from post linked two up" "So, things are extremely shitty, the reserves that were thrown from near Lysichansk and Donetsk did not reach Kupyansk and were completely ruined by the Ukrops. ... Our entire Kharkov grouping is broken, there are no reserves." So the RU Donbas reserves are trashed, and the Ukrainians are moving on the area where they had been stationed. The video one up shows UA APV advancing right down the road, with no apparent cover or recon ahead. They are either idiots or very confident they are well behind the defense lines. Ukraine looks like they might be attempting an en enchelon attack on a grand scale, rolling from north to south. |
