🇷🇺 forces have advanced and taken control of Dubovo-Vasylivka as well as advancing in Northwest Bakhmut.
Get out! Ukrainian and Russian notions of war are far different than the US’s.
Didn’t realize that the Eastern Third of Bakhmut had already been liberated. Seems as though the end is getting near.
Liberated yeah that’s why they’re fighting like hell to kill Russians.
I’ll try one of your arguments. Why don’t you go join your beloved Wagner Group and help them “liberate”.
The word that you are looking for is “conquered,” not “liberated.”
please do not tease the animals lol
Yes. The Russians are said to control all roads west now. The only options for the remaining Ukrainians is fight to the death or surrender.
Stalingrad and/or Melitoplol 2
“please do not tease the animals lol”
It’s TOO EASY though!
Anyone ever hear the abbr/acronym DDMow ?? Closest I could find out about it. it was a Vietnam era term but never found its meaning.
Dude, no one likes to be told they were wrong especially on this forum. Just like the covid pandemic, this war has been a revelation. So many gullible freepers believing the msm lies and acting righteously. Arrogant self righteous fools.
The only possible reason I could see to continue this defense is if the Russians are taking bigger losses.
it is possible compensation is based on engagement (or per reply etc). so also consider that.
If Wagner would either let Ukraine leave or get more artillery and armored support, then they could take the town faster. Instead Prigozhin's operations are making it easy for Ukraine to kill his men as they withdraw.
I'm just not saying that to make Ukraine look good and Wagner look bad. How Prigozhin is taking Bakhmut is really stupid.
How far is it again from Bakhmut to Kyiv?
No idea. But General George Washington would have pulled out his troops from Bakhmut six months ago so they can fight the Russians elsewhere. Not sure what Zelensky is thinking. This is a war of attrition. This usually favors the Russians.
Sounds like Zelensky’s more than willing to watch Ukrainian soldiers continue to be chewed up in Bakhmut for the “Glory of Zelensky”........
Di di (mau) (“dee-dee (maow)”): Vietnamese for “go away (fast) or “haul ass”
I feel old. The last I heard that phrase was on A-Team reruns 30 years ago.
