Well, their equipments' value is based on howafar they can throw it.

There is rumours of the liberation of Lysychans'k.

I will wait for triple confirmation to be sure as of now I am sceptical still.

quote:

Regarding Lysychansk:
I can confirm Ukrainian forces were fighting around the oil refinery several days ago and were attempting to advance east of Bilohorivka.

It is safe to assume Ukrainian forward elements are several kilometres from the outskirts as of several days ago.


@NeilPHauer (reporter with verified account)

quote:

Longtime source in Ukraine's Foreign Legion tells me Lysychansk is fully under Ukrainian control. "River is crossed, city is ours - Severodonetsk soon."


quote:

Meaning the river is crossed nearby to secure the environs and prepare for Severodonetsk



So, I don't believe Hauer's source. I can't possibly imagine that Lysychansk was fully liberated this easily.

But I do think that it's possible that Ukraine has launched a significant attack in that direction.

What river? His source is definitely wrong on this one.

His source was claiming that Lysychansk has been completely liberated and Ukrainian forces have crossed the Siverski Donets and are assaulting Russian forces in Severodonetsk.

The former being on high ground overlooking the later across the river. Exfill from Lysychansk was only because the route to it was cut off from the east and the western route in danger.

UA have taken control of Oskil and Yats’kivka.

UA took back control of Bilohorivka. Therefore, two and a half months after they fully occupied it, RU no longer has full control of Luhansk Oblast.

UA have advanced in the North of Kherson and there is now fighting around the settlement of Bilyaivka.

So, Are you saying now (about 6 months in) that the Russian equipment is crap and they are abandoning it, can’t get spare parts, while the Ukrainians are figuring out ways to make spare parts for our equipment and keep it working????

Who could have predicted that ????

When I saw that problem with tires by March 1st, it was easily predicted. Russian craftsmanship darn sure extends to maintenance throughout its military. Easily predicted.

Baws in Ukraine that know their way around a mill turned a Russian Havoc into a bottle opener. I have to admit I would pay good money for one of these.
