At another time, one could say that this is the calm before the storm, but now there is no such feeling - the enemy has indeed suffered significant losses, and most importantly, he does not understand what tactics could bring him results. It would seem that everything has been tried.
The last technique, when he continuously mixed us up with artillery for several days, and only then went on the offensive, led to the fact that he himself was unable to gain a foothold in the positions from which we retreated, and now they are again under our control. Moreover, the fortieth brigade even managed to crawl into territory that was previously considered under enemy control. There's a lot to think about here. Will he be able to accumulate the strength to try his military luck again? Big question..."
