By most estimates it seems that more than 50,000 Ukrainian troops have died in this city alone over the past 8 months. One year ago in history on this date, Mariupol, the birthplace of Azov Nazism, was liberated as well. @shrike502@Shrike502@lemmygrad.ml it seems that Prigozhin’s random diatribes about “running out of ammo” turned out to be some wild psyop after all, I wonder what was happening

    Think of it as a medieval army that loses a castle and now has to fight from barns and fields. Wagner + other RU forces will recuperate and deal with the current Ukrainian offensive, but after that we can probably expect RU advances towards Slavyansk and Kramatorsk at a relatively fast pace.

        Fast pushes might happen

        Not like blitzkrieg, but the Ukrainians will be hard-pressed to seriously hold any of these territories, unlike Bakhmut, where they stayed and bled for months.

            There will not be a battle like Bakhmut until either Zaporozhye or Kramatorsk/Slaviansk. Also noteworthy is that a moderate obstacle may be presented by Ukrainian forest belts in the region (especially near Ivanovske), which could be hard to clear. I never said that the “fast push” would last till Khmelnitsky, I was referring to the space between Artemovsk and Kramatorsk
