It will be a “bridgehead” when there is a bridge ….or at least a defendable lodgement area…that receives and flows ukr forces, vehicles and equipment into battle

Until then it is an continuous grinding amphibious insertion of a small number of troops, unable to advance or retreat, replacing the dead, dying while serving Zelensky’s insanely murderous order to maintain a show of force on the eastern bank for propaganda purposes to impress his weapon suppliers and the detached remote Kiev civilians who believe ukr is winning…something…anything….and headed on the road to Crimea

Are you allergic to reading?

See my #19, beyond the first few lines. Asked and answered.

“Until then it is an continuous grinding amphibious insertion of a small number of troops, unable to advance or retreat, replacing the dead”

And that was where it stood a couple of months ago, when the dated account of those wounded Ukrainian soldiers was recorded. That is not how it stands now, for the reasons stated by Axe, and cut and pasted for you in #19. It’s 4:26 a.m. I dozed. I awoke. I’m going back to sleep.
