    For context, this is probably where the Ukrainian troops are fighting with the largest disadvantage, attacking into Russian-held territory while across a river from supplies and reinforcements. I was amazed that they managed to make the crossing at all, and now I’m amazed that they’re able to hold on.

      On the other hand they’re not fighting into multiple layers of trenches and minefields. Nova Kakhovka dam destruction really fucked with Ukraine plans for summer offensive on all fronts though.
