Putin beordrar styrkor att gå in i Ukraina - INVASION NU (2022-02-24)

In total: another attempt to ram the long-term defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the Donetsk front with frontal strikes resulted only in local tactical successes with very serious losses.

The offensive in Marinka has been stopped at the moment. Despite all the loud statements that "just about" - to completely liberate the village before the end of January, it was not possible.

Fierce fighting in the area of the village of Vodiane also did not bring decisive success to the RF Armed Forces. After initial successes and breaking through the front lines of the enemy's defenses, the offensive "stuck" due to heavy losses in the infantry assault units, lack of artillery ammunition and - in general - poor technical support for the attacking units and their low staffing.

Under Ugledar, the bravura statements about a breakthrough directly in the urban-type settlement, as expected, turned out to be a lie. The village, which has long been turned into a single fortress, is a compact microdistrict of high-rise buildings in the middle of continuous flat fields, but it was not possible to take it in a "swoop". Now the troops trying to storm it are in an extremely disadvantageous position compared to the defending units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which are hidden in concrete cellars and have the ability to adjust artillery fire at a considerable distance even without the use of technical means.
