Interesting developments today:
It's said that Russians are running out of 122mm ammo because... the only functioning 122mm factory in the world was in Ukraine.
While Ukraine lost a hack a lot of 122mm ammo, it's stocks must still be bigger.
Retaking Crimea will deny Russian a free reign with airpower over South Ukraine, it costs more than Marioupol.
Given the extreme symbolic importnace of Crimea to Russia, they will likelly pull from Donbas, or at least divert huge portion of forces.
The destroyed bridge is all they need to...
Ukraine doesn't have much forests in much of the country, but tons of small villages in the east every few kilometres allows enemy to disperse, and hide.
East of the country is much more hilly, making long range direct fire easily avoidable.
Bad reports from Donbas, good from Kherson
Russia used its firepower advantage to advance from the south. They hopped multiple small villages
Kiselivka is fully abandoned by Russians sans soldiers who used Russian retreat to desert. Lots, and lots of heavy ammo!
