"They urged Ukraine to push through the vast minefields left behind by Russia in the area, even if this means losing more soldiers and equipment in the process, according to the reports.

Maybe the Ukrainian Generals know something that our bureaucrats don't know. Anyone who believes that those "vast minefields" planted by the Russians aren't also covered by literally THOUSANDS of artillery guns hasn't got enough brain cells committed to Russian war doctrine to rub two of them together. There AIN'T no "pushing through" them, they'll get blown to kingdom come if they try. Call it "Operation Haig1916."

Stupid, arrogant, bloodthirsty bureaucrats, brave with other people's mortality, BIH.

“There AIN’T no “pushing through” them, they’ll get blown to kingdom come if they try.”
