    Am area the size of Philly. Whew that’s gonna worry Russia.

    IIRC it’s to smash the gas pipelines. If they want to actually hold this they’re gonna have a hard time. Maybe they can turn it into a flanking move or something, otherwise it has the makings of a “high water mark” moment like Gettysburg.

      It’s to make Russia either destroy the facilities in order to dislodge the UAF and retake the area or show weakness and allow the capture to stand for a period.

      Those gas pipelines run through Ukraine, don’t they? If they wanted to cut off the pipeline they didn’t need to cross the border to do that.

        Russia is having a hard time because everyone working for Putin is a con man grifter. Some are, in addition to being frauds, also dumb as fuck.
