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

    I mean the next defence line, at least to me, looks just as formidable. Toretsk - Konstantinovka - Druzhkivka - Kramatorsk - Slavyansk with the settlements inbetween them seems like one interconnected urban fortress ring with each point as large as Bakhmut. Can’t imagine them giving up any of them easily when they’ve clung on to every little village as much as they can.

      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
