>about to encircle Pokrovsk
Lmao! This "encirclement" has been going on for only a few days shy of a year now.

I remember when Bakhmut was the last real hinge point before something, and after it fell big stuff would happen. 2 years later ziggers are still meatgrinding the suburb 4 miles to the West. Just like they've been meatgrinding Pokrovsk for a week shy of a year now lmao.

One year anniversary approaching and still the meatgrind goes on. Why not just encircle it and starve them out or something?

Cold, damp, and shitty to live in...but impregnable fortresses that can resist a siege for a year or more if necessary.
