Thread 512872166

will the cute snail attack maneuver succeed?

No, but when it's repelled everyone will forget it happened like they have all the other 20,000 times the board has been spammed claiming the front is collapsing.

>when it's repelled

What even made this rapid breakthrough possible (and yes that's a lot of ground for 2 days)

Was it something new Russia tried?

>>512872385
Not enough guys to man all the positions

>>512872166 (OP)
Well they're already behind the lines, so.

>>512872385
hohols are an endangered species

>>512872385
From all reports it seems Ukraine is having some trouble replenishing their troops that they allegedly are not losing at all.
Pokrovsk is directly cited by local commander of running out of troops.

>>512872166 (OP)
looks like a deer

It will definitely succeded in killing additional thousands of russians, that's the point I see in it

>>512872385
the war of attrition has gotten to the point where ukraine simply does not have enough men to stop russia. it was inevitable

>>512872385
ukraine had 2 defense lines that they built since 2014, one was the bakhmut avdiivka line that was taken a while ago, and the second (much weaker) line is the pokrovsk kontanivka line, but the russians just managed to break through the second defense line now and there's literally nothing behind it, like anyone predicted, russia would take a while to get through the 2014 defense lines and then they'll just go through ukraine like hot knife through butter because there's no defenses behind pokrovsk

Surprised you haven't been spammed with "14:1" by /uhg/ tards yet.

3 years of attrition war?

>>512872166 (OP)
But I thought Ukraine was miraculously killing 14 Russians for every one of theirs that died. Did Trump and /uhg/ lie to me?

>>512872242
>when it's repelled
With what men?
>front is collapsing.
Ukraine has been getting slowly pushed back on all fronts since late-2022. Even their Summer 2023 copefensive lost more ground than it took. Ukraine will lose. It's inevitable. So what exactly are you cheering for?

>>512872166 (OP)
lol did the russians do another sneak pipe attack

Cute rabbit.
This is just trolling at this point.

>>512874166
Naa, they drove through. Ukraine has no men. Even though they've drafted ~1.5 million men, plus their initial army, plus reserves, plus volunteers.

>>512874166
they used the big waaagh

How soon until Zelensky gets strung up on Maidan Square? Will he even make it to Friday?

>>512874588
O, I like mr Wolski, he's rather decent specjalista, typical assburger

There are no roads for this breakthrough. This must be some sort of armored, mechanized or bicycle force. But then where are the usual drone swarms?

Something must be going on here that changed the calculation and drones can't be used as easily

Guess we wait for more information

>>512872385
Russia has been manufacturing ~15,000+ (geran 2) drones a year, out manufacturing the entirety of NATO in artillery production 3 to 1, and been able to call up to 500k fresh troops a year, they've also come up with better attrition tactics to surround and take cities and towns in the most heavily fortified areas. In attrition warfare once a fortified front falls and the ability to replace stage troops and equipment in time starts falling, the front can collapse relatively quickly. Russia has been advancing more rapidly along roughly 300 miles of front in the last couple months. At the present rate Pokrovsk should fall within 30-60 days but we'll see the snail has already expanded on the institute for war map. And then the snail breakout can be used to surround Konstiantynivka, finally setting up a new front in Kramatorsk.

He is probably in Tel Aviv snorting coke off a 14 year old's ass. To the last Ukrainian!

>>512879319
The Russian line is roughly 2500m outside of Stinky right now and advancing towards it.

>>512879616
should genocide them next time, they never learn

>>512875598
>and been able to call up to 500k fresh troops a year
why do they need 500.000 new soldiers every year

>>512872385
Ukraine is close to the breaking point, having lost way too many men to continue fighting an attritional war.

>>512872385
some dirt bikes drove up that far and 'Claimed' that they took all that ground prob since it was uncontested

>>512880255
>The Russian line is roughly 2500m outside of Stinky right now and advancing towards it.
there's still hope...

>>512879616
A lot of Poles are just ridiculous, endless screeching about Russia this, Russia that but Russia never completely leveled their country like the Germans did. They screech about communism but their own kings made Poland full of jews. I like Poland but so many of them are fucking retarded, how do you not see how Ukraine was used as cannon fodder, like totally expendable worthless human garbage and not think they would do the exact same to you? That Fico guy from Slovakia just came out and said the same thing, I wonder what new sanctions or whatever the EU will do to them in response. Try to assassinate him again? At least it's good to see Poland doing well economically I guess.

>>512872385
It's the same strategy being used for most of the cities, which simply becomes more and more effective as the enemy attrits

>>512880388
You rotate troops in war. Ukraine has been reportedly "recruiting" 200-300k fresh troops every year.

>>512880511
>and not think they would do the exact same to you?
They think they are in the club now. They are simply stupid
> I wonder what new sanctions or whatever the EU will do to them in response.
EU is on a short leash now that daddy Trump is president, all the attacks on Orban ceased when he got elected

Release the list

>>512872166 (OP)
The objective is the outcome. The outcome is a million dead Ukrainian men and the millions who’ve fled.

stinky is only 3.5 km from the russian advance

>>512872242
>No, but when it's repelled everyone will forget it happened like they have all the other 20,000 times the board has been spammed claiming the front is collapsing.
This. The previous "it's over" map is already memoryholed.

>>512880981
>this isnt history repeating itself for hundredth time with the russian military
Surely THIS time Russia isn't sending legions of untrained meat shields into battle.

>>512881230
May we see video evidence?

>>512881171
NOT THE STINKY!!!!

Why is Azov happy with Jews leading them?

>>512881171
Stenky will hold

>>512881171
there's still a chance that Stinky can hold...

>>512881370
They're stupid white people like the rest of europe

>>512881171
It differs by which site you use. The closest approach is on the institute for war map, which has Mykolaivka already under Russian control and the claimed line is only 2500m from Stinky. Pokrovsk definitely looks fucked, after which the new pivot will probably be to Konstiantynivka and then Kramatorsk and the border of Donetsk oblast. Stinky will probably fall around the same time as Pokrovsk.

>>512881171
No, stinky!!

>>512881480
I think defence politics asia is the most accurate

>>512881196
why aren't you on the frontlines?
somebody needs to protect the trans kids

yes kyiv will fall next week

>>512881171
uh oh!

>>512881171
this is a disaster. I don’t know how to cope if stinky falls

>>512872385
Imagine Ukraine has 10 people and Russia has 20 people. They can only field 3 soldiers each year.
>Year 1
3-3= 0
Border doesn't move
>Year 2
3-3= 0
Border doesn't move
>Year 3
3-3= 0
Border doesn't move
>Year 4
1-3= -2
Border moves as Ukraine starts running out of people

So the "Russia is slower than a snail" was actually Russian propaganda? kek

I didnt really look to much into this until I saw the amount of shilling going on here on Twitter, and if you post it on /k/, you get banned within 5 seconds. Why is this attack so different from the others? The amount of shilling and seething is crazy. Is it because it's right before the meeting on Friday?

>>512884655
Yeah, russia wants a bargaining chip probably

>>512884655
i think it's just a lot of territory in a short amount of time, and leaves Pokrovsk in a bad situation, either the ukrainians are very weak and can't oppose anymore, or the russians just rushed to take a photo and nothing will happen, but i think it was published in "official" ukrainian maps so seems real so far

>>512884655
Cause breakthroughs like these are rare and most of this war is slow squad/platoon level infantry and drone slog with glacial pace of advance. “Human waves” you hear about are basically 5 or 6 guys going somewhere either on light vehicles or on foot after drones and artillery pulverize everything and trying to dig in.

This is the most defended part of the whole front at this point and the fact Russians managed to advance ~20 km so quickly and fan out indicates there’s something really wrong with Ukrainian defenses. Whether it’s local or indicates the start of systemic collapse of Ukrainian Army remains to be seen.

Russian strategy is very simple and boring, they launch small-scale low-cost attacks everywhere and wear Ukrainians down. If they move a lot of troops to plug this gap, Russians will just push harder somewhere else and then it’s rinse and repeat.

Cruel thing about this war is that if you’re mentally challenged like most Ukraine supporters and have attention span of a goldfish this dynamic makes you think Ukraine is “holding”, but they’re only “holding” cause Russians wage the war in a boring and economical way.

This war virtually ended in 2023 in terms of outcome. Since then, ignoring PR stunts like Kursk or Krynky (particularly bizarre episode), Ukraine completely lacks initiative and can only sit there and take it. Even the talk of some giga-counter-offensyiv has died down months ago.
