There’s no more roads to escape from Severodonetsk and Lisishansk.
I believe that Russian forces need to capture Liman properly pushing off AFU from the vicinity or eliminate it totally in the area to cut off the last connection of Lisichansk with the outside world.
Liman (Lyman) is not going to be as simple to capture. Kiev’s forces are un the south western area of the city. The area is known for its railyard and warehouses. Furthermore, the western flank of the city is more or less elevated. It will most certainly slow the Russians down, especially if they take the city as the mop up will take days and possibly weeks depending on the number of Kievs troops in the area.
And I think it doesn’t matter, just entomb them and wait for the inevitable.
Okay, one of this days, maybe, we will talk a little. But in that hells caldroun there’s no way to escape…without permission, pi, period. Pity brothers are forced to kill brothers, but the reponsables are already paying,
i can’t publish in this comment any more?
And in the Great Game, shlomos simply don’t exist, es nada.
I believe this is correct. Looking at the map each small capture has led toward a more sizable capture, alternating south side of the developed/developing cauldron to the north side. North side Liman is now the active target for bigger capture. AFU losing it will make large supply delivery to the AFU in the east/Severodonetsk much more limited. But the AFU can read a map too and probably have put their best troops in to Liman, they will be heavily and expertly dug in as well as nestled in civilian areas, and AFU will have or have taken out bridges. They’ll make nothing easy for RF. Ultimately if we hear Liman has fallen, the end is in sight for AFU in Severodonetsk and others in the east. If it’s in a week that suggests AFU gave up rather than die. If it is a month then we’ll know AFU fought on every street corner.
To be correct, the main logistical roads are under complete fire control. That said, there are dozens of roads connecting Kievs forces in the gaps not controlled by Russian forces. Many of these roads also travel through dense woodland, making it difficult to track small convoys and individual units. Furthermore, saboteur groups are still active in the regions controlled by Russian forces. Likewise, this map doesn’t represent complete control, as small units from both sides operate at depth behind the front lines. Supplies still make it to the Kiev forces in the east, just under greater stress and less efficiently. The cauldron rough will most likely be closed by Friday or Saturday as things are proceeding. There are lots of reports of Ukraine forces withdrawing from around and north of Bilohorivka, which is not a significant town in any sense aside from it being on the main road to Severodonetsk. Not highly defensible, but a necessary step on the way.
That is if you use the main roads as only RF are stupid enough to do. Plenty of country roads to resupply.
Have the mariupol evacuees made it to Kiev yet, ukrotard? Lol
Russian retreat at Severdonetsk. Looks like the moronic encirclement of the city is no different than the one in Kiev. Ukranian forces have complete control of the city and the Putin cockroaches are just trying to take suburbs on the outskirts of the city. They’ll keep trying except this time the Russian propaganda idiots won’t be able to come up with a new operational phase to hide their defeat. https://charter97.org/en/news/2022/5/17/468070/
Piss off !
Isn’t that funny. Even the US military intelligence is telling the Ukrainians to retreat from Severdonetsk because it’s hopeless and Ukrainians can’t retreat because they are being attacked on three sides and Russia has fire control over the fourth direction so Ukrainian forces trying to retreat have to run an artillery gauntlet.
It’s like a mini Falaise pocket.
If you’re suggesting that they’re surrounded then I don’t think you have much of a point there considering that the shitty Russian army spent three months trying to capture Mariupol. You just shot yourself in the foot there.
Active fighting in Mariupol only lasted for 20 days, then the Nazis hid in Azovstal for the next 7 weeks.
No one is suggesting it, it’s actually happening
Remember guys with Ukrotard dummies high on copium and delusional as hell, everything is reverse
Nazis = not nazis dead = alive surrounded = not happening, not true!!!!! losing = winning retreating = advancing
We’re in 25 May posts 17 May article which is fake news as always
COPIUM addled Ukronazi turd raging and crying!!!!!!!!
Islamic goat shagger/hasbara troll speaking typing B.S. as usual!
I don’t know if you’re capable of realizing that saying nonsense makes you look bad and doesn’t help your cause whatever.
I realised with ukrotards everything is opposite. Nazis are not nazis and losing is winning. They have to cope no matter what, because the reality is harsh for them. Theyβre getting slaughtered
Looks like everything is going to plan
Is Mariupol still under bombardment?
According to the map of SF above yes !
Some of the classic lines from twitter
”What I understand from this though is a controlled retreat to a new defensive line. Whilst not ideal, you canβt βwinβ everywhere always. But withdrawing troops whilst increasing bombardment suggests that the holding action was necessary while artillery arrived – now it has
Ukraine has done this successfully several times now in the last 3 months. It’s good strategy.”
I replied ‘fantastic strategy retreating and losing, 1/4 of the country gone. Getting smashed and losing = strategy now.’ He acts like only they have artillery and all this mass retreat is going to be changed with a couple m777 howtizers LOL. And remember ….. only Russians lose soldiers. Ukrops just respawn like in COD!!!!!!
Incredible. Constantly retreating to new lines to be encircled over and over. Awesome strategy.
Another beauty from twitter …..
”Actually good news out of this ***hole while Twitter people supposedly on the side of Ukraine fall into hysterics over the most minor of gains. Ukraine strategically withdraws as Russia slips into its own noose.”
LOL he actually thinks Russia is falling into a trap because the encircled units are retreating but leaving behind tons of unlucky martyrs to cover their retreat. Just to fall back to another area and be encircled there, and repeat ad nauseum. Holding on to long supply lines to cut off roads while forming a landbridge to Crimea and the subsequent withdrawal from Kiev and Chernihiv, plus minor Kharkiv losses gave these Ukrotards a false sense of confidence it seems.
Later another retard says it will all change when the bulk of the Western weapons arrive (because they haven’t yet according to him …. they’re just destroyed by Russian strikes or sent to the black market by corrupt oligarchs seizing them for their own profit while Ukrop troops cry because they only have an old AK and torn up kevlar vests vs tanks, mlrs, artillery, mortars, machineguns and airplanes LOL)
I also loved how a Ukrop pointed out to another Ukrop how hypocritically delirious they are and how they only want to circlejerk around the fire to fake fantasy social media and moral victories, even if they know deep down its not all rosy. This is what he said (because Girkin was bashing Russian military and tactics for a while and in his latest update is rightfully very positive)
”Err…should we trust what comes out of his mouth? I mean, hearing him raging at the ‘defeatists’ of the Kremlin and wondering why there’s no mass mobilisation in Russia is all well and good, but he remains a very pro-Russia source…”
And other guy says
”You trust what he says when he bashes Russian command but don’t trust when he reports about its successes?”
LOL comedy gold …. Ukrotard IQ in a nutshell in that post.
RF circling the village square on their knees
You are one fucking pathetic son of a bitch.
Valhalla or Hell. Where due you think Dead Ukrainian NAZIS are headed? It’s Christmas in hell mother *******.
Ukraine wants the infrastructure of ethnic Russian regions destroyed in this invasion because they know it will be lost anyway. Ukraine will leave worthless destroyed property in their retreat.
The main roads connecting to Severodonetsk and Lysychansk that are currently in battles between Putinβs army vs the Ukrainian army including remnants of some Neo-Nazi Azov battalion are blocked from other Russian troops with LRP troops and reinforced troops who occupied Izium last month. By this month or early June, both Severo and Lysychan will both be occupied by Putin, additionally with Zolote thatβll lose the battle, the occupation of the Luhansk Oblast will be finished possibly by early June or before, following the occupation, Luhansk will declare independence from Ukraine and join the Russian federation thatβll send close to 100,000 Russian troops to begin the final toughest battle of the Donbas Region, the Donetsk Oblast and its relocated capital of Kramatorsk thatβll end the controversial war.
I heard the same too. 16 divisions so approx 160k soldiers and according to other sources 55btgs so between 40-70k. Either way a big number of russian troops is still to come.
Also they are amassing a force near zaporizhzhia capital, possible offensive there?
And gained lots of ground north of avdiivka and trying to encircle it now.
New tactics of creating many small cauldrons so far seem to be working well
If Vladimir Putin has a somewhat massive army of 200,000+ troops stationed in Rostov Oblast, theyβre waiting for their time to get inside the Luhansk Oblast (Ukraine) to make its independence referendum and accession into the Russian federation, marching into Luhanskβs capital city and other towns and villages to prepare for the most destructive war of the Donetsk Oblast to capture the relocated capital of Kramatorsk, already as planned.
In the Zaporizhzhia Oblast, I didnβt hear any media sources regarding how many Russian troops are stationed to begin occupation of the Oblastβs capital city.
In the battle of Avdiivka in my opinion as the longest battle in the Donbas war, little progress is made because Russian troops are focusing occupation of the last towns and cities in the Luhansk Oblast as the main objective to occupy the Donbas region.
Myself whose from Peru π΅πͺπ³οΈβπ whose currently in a political struggle between Cold War factions, Iβll say this, Putin and Russia π·πΊ, save my country.
SLAVA ROSSIY SLAVA PERU
FYI there is a reported sizeable buildup near Vasilivka south of Zaporizhzhia capital
In Cobra Kai π, together as Johnny Lawrence and Miguel Diaz, the world will know the truth.
How many Russian troops are stationed south of Zaporizhzhia? My guess would be between 50,000 – 80,000+ troops.
Will we see birth of Denature-Ukraine? The land as servitude hub for Russian oil and gas transport.
Could someone tell me why as an American, I want Russia to win this war so badly?
Most conservatives I know in USA want Ukraine to win.
Because, maybe you are a CIA or NSA employee posting this comment to try to get some replies. Anyways *False Flag* detected
oops, well done, my bs detector was off.
The Holy Mother asked for Russia to belong to Her. See Mary appears in Fatima and Fatima’s messages. Our decrepit gay pandering Pope, on March 25th, he made an official consecration of Russia and Ukraine to Jesus’ Mother. It was the feast day of the Annunciation, the Angel Gabriel came to Mary to tell her…Son of the Most high for nothing is impossible to God. Russia is one of the very few bastions of Christianity left in our world and as a major power and Christian nation, a lot of people feel drawn to Russia. Also we hate the deceptions and warmongerings of NATO nations against Iraq, Libya, Serbia, Syria, the decimation of Christianity in the ME, the godlessness of the West, the LGBT Q…the DECEPTION and we can see the careful restraint of Putin and how he keeps his word. See Russian Faith. Phenomenal amount of newly build, rebuilt restored churches, cathedrals, monasteries. The seminaries are flourishing too. Russia gives me hope for our world.
The “Russian Faith” is schismatic and heretical. See “Russkiy Mir”.
Also, most Russians dont believe in God, soul or afterlife, but they strongly identify with the Moscow Patriarchate. It is a tribal identity.
The Russian juggernaut just continues to crush!
