All quiet on the Eastern front, Now that the Russians are beginning to build concrete bunkers near Bakhmut and mount turreted gun mounts. Do you think the Ukraians will be able to penetrate this defensive line?

Fortified positions you say?
>where is the snow?
Just a random pic of Ukraine arty. Still more relevant than a pic from a ww1 movie.
Yawn. Cut the Russian supply lines and hit their logistic supply points.
The Russians will run out of fuel, food and ammo.
I have yet to see one time that fixed fortifications have actually managed to stop a modern army.
Atlantic Wall, Maginot, Hindenburg Line, Tarawa, Iwo Jima, Fortress Cities, none of these managed to act anything other than a speed bump for a well-trained army with tanks, artillery, and air support.
>well-trained army with tanks
BOOM, I'm sorry what was that?
Iwo Jima was a massive bloodbath though. Hopefully Ukraine will get the opportunity to lock Russia into multiple high-casualty battles.
having to wade in from 2 miles out might have had something to do with that...
The Maginot Line managed to fulfill its intended purpouse of allowing the french to lightly garrison their border with germany and encourage the germans to attack north through the lowlands. The french expected the germans to attack there and were prepared to meet the german attack but were surprised by the german TEMPO and were ultimately overwhelmed. The fortified Japanese islands such as Iwo Jima and Okinawa were a bloodbath, primarily due to the allies lack of proper bunker busting warheads. The atlantic wall alowed the germans to man the enormous atlantic coast with very few underequipped forces so they could focus their limited strength on the east and north africa.
Fortifications work very well as a deterrant
I think the russian plan is to take Soledar, use it to flank Bakhmut and force a retreat toward Kramatorsk and Slaviantsk.
Then either conquer those 2 or fight around them, until spring and an offensive on Kharkiv using the mobik army in Belarus equiped by stripping naked the Belarussian Army.
Not even the most deluded russian general could possibly plan on getting any useful help from Belarus?
Belarus is training the russian mobilised (because most of the russian instructors were already sent to the front in may) and giving them most of their equipment and vehicles.
But is it useful help? Do the Belarusian trainers have war experience? What is the state and level of their equipment and vehicles? Hav we seen any Belarusian-trained or -equipped russian units in combat?
Looks like Ukraine has decided to turn Soledar into a prolonged slaughter for Russians by continuing assailing it
Ukies have massively fortified the belarussian border in the last 11 months, mobiks have better chance starting a revolution in belarus and creating a new people's republic of southern slavshit
>Russians are beginning to build concrete bunkers near Bakhmut
Concrete kindly donated by china and india. Thank you for doing the needful.
What the frick. I get styrofoam, but how can it possibly be cheaper to use corn? Where did they even get it from?
corn is probably better than styrofoam not gonna lie
Someone posted something on Twitter so it must be true? Could as well be a pic from the cage where George Washington kept his favorite female black slaves.
It is true, and not because someone posted it on Twitter. It's actually a huge fricking problem in China right now and a big contributor to their current economic problem.
But someone just so happened to post it on twitter too, that isn't relevant to it being true but it IS indeed a thing that happened. homosexual.
I'm not even arguing against. I'm completely willing to believe that somewhere in a frick huge country some random farmer have built a two foot wall on his farm with whatever he had on hand to keep the pigs from the cabbage field. I'll be more surprised if this tiny bit of wall is part of a new eight lane road. But we don't know shit because the picture is worthless without a reference with a shred of credibility to it. Or time reference for that matter. It could be the fricking Great Wall Of China.
>t. Pajeet jealous his house is made of cardboard and poo instead of superior cobcrete
>cobcrete
>not corncrete
I see you’re new to the world of vegetable based building supplies
>Now that the Russians are beginning to build concrete bunkers near Bakhmut
Hold on a second. Why are they fortifying along the line they're attacking?
>Do you think the Ukraians will be able to penetrate this defensive line?
They'll penetrate it with 155mm memes.
Sounds from the reports like there are about 500 elderly people left in Solidar, trapped. Won't make any difference to the russians but it could make it harder for the Ukies to let the grenade rain start.
