except russians can't post a field with dozens upon dozens of dead ukrainians and can't post ukrainians dying by the dozen in 20 different videos daily. so yeah, whatever they say is a complete bullshit and projection.
Anyone claiming the fricking attackers going up against a heavily entrenched position are pulling a 7:1 K/D is on some seriously strong military-grade copium.
No, you're the only cranial nullity claiming a 7:1 K:D ratio in favor of the Russians. Go play in traffic, you moronic vatBlack person. I'm going to brick in your goddamn mouth.
Ye, if only a certain leader of a certain PMC came out on video repeatedly and 'bragged' about losing hundreds EACH DAY as part of his political beef with the Russian MOD... guess we'll never know
The guy who got clapped by Trench Rambo was GRU spetsnaz. Russians are literally wasting their top tier special forces spearheading infantry assaults on a small town with situational strategic value, and the situation isn't there.

The situation is that Bakhmut was a fortress city that has become the centerpoint of the Ukrainian military.
They pretty much have to take it now. Doing so would basically cripple Ukraine. More than even Kharkiv or Kherson.

oh, boy
Bakhmut was an ordinary little town in a highly rural area
the only plausible reason russia attacked it two months ago was in the hope of grabbing it after the loss of kherson so they could say they took a city and push the kherson loss off the front page
turned out to be just another russian failed

Bakhmut was a big deal when Russia held Izyum, meaning that for the past half a year, Russians have been throwing themselves at a town that really just opens the way to the next couple of towns so they can repeat the process all over again.

LMAO...Ukraine has like 3 battalions defending Bakhmut, but it is in their best interest for everyone to believe vatnigs screeching that the entire UAF is there
Ukraine through its Allies has access to the best human and signals intelligence in the world through MI6 and the NSA. They will be fully aware of what units are being formed, moved to the front, merged and destroyed through attrition. They are in a vastly better position than Russia to decide when the tipping point is. Russias intelligence networks never recovered after the mass expulsions of spies in the wake of the skripal poisonings. Even before then they were heavily penetrated.
i'm still going to fail you in tactics 101.
there's a reason every front line ever is kept straight.
not retreating while getting outflanked is moronic.
I don't care what you think. You wait to the last moment, retreat, let Russia push into prepared defences and then counter attack into extended forces with stretched supplies and logistics.
Ukraine doesn't have the ability to do any of that.

I can't wait to see what the Russians' plans for defending against the next Ukrainian offensive are like. I heard Gerasimov's named it Operation Cannot Possibly Fail a Third Time
No kidding, so you do what Ukraine has been doing for months and retreat. It's just that in Bakmut they only need to retreat by a few hundred meters at most.
Under those circumstances, why would they want to retreat all the way out of the city unless they have to (and right now they don't)?
Not every tactic is universal. Take the Battle of Kursk, in which the Russians maintained a large salient jutting into German lines, and fortified that area specifically because they knew they could bait the Germans into attacking it and suffering disproportionate casualties.
Also the incident in Ukraine circa 1943 where the commander of a tank army IN A BRIDGEHEAD OVER THE DNEPR was like >comrade stalin we cannot hold here, the enemy is too strong, we have suffered incredible casualties, the line is at risk of breaking
and stalin went >...hmm, actually ok that makes sense, in that case you can leave the bridgehead >AND GO TO THE BRIDGE HEAD 20 KM NORTH INSTEAD >you'll have better odds there!
And it fricking worked.
>let's back up 20 km from this easily defensible city into these untenable plains instead because this incredibly slow and incredibly easy to track army made up of almost exclusively infantry and artillery at this point is threatening our flanks
To the Russians and sympathizers in the audience, can you guys name any battle since 1860 in which an entrenched defender and and attacker of similar size had a battle where the attacker did not outhumber the defender in casualties? This just seems a highly unlikely occurance especially when both sides have similar artillery capability.
>Russia sponsors gays to lie about Binlan on youtube >morons pay with all their material possessions to get smuggled to Europe >half of they die before they cross the Med >half get caught on the way or die suffocating in a truck >the ones that finally get there discover you have to work, it's cold, dark and everybody expects you to be both polite and also frick off >can't even hope to get adopted by some crazy chick who's into darkies because there's literal africans who are better educated than you, speak Suomi fluently, serve in the army along with everyone else and have jobs >get deported or suicide
Even if Bakhmut ends up encircled, and all the soldiers inside end up dead or POWs you gays will still cry about le ratio. Stop with the /k/opium. The doubts about Ukraine's decisions when it comes to Bakhmut are justified
Completely unrelated, did you know that during WW2, the British, yanks, fins etc had absolutely no idea they would land in France until the day before, at best? A lot were very sceptical about a supposed counter invasion in Norway of all places. Anyway, operation Fortitude was very successful in the end, as you well know
The plan is probably to hold the line, but it is failing.
Someone in command fricked up big time. Ukrainians threw elite veteran troops and when those got eliminated, they began sending the troops trained for the big offensive in the UK into the meatgrinder.
The plan is dogged defense, like it's been from the start of the war. Like in Severodonetsk when the units started withdrawing and command rushed in everything they could find immediately.
Ukranian men have proven to be a threat to democracy. They're right wing, nationalistic, and willing to take up arms. Both sides need these hazards liquidated, and Bakhmut is a suitable meat grinder. Zalenski can sue for peace once Khazaria is cleansed of the ukro menace.
No one said they're smart, they got played like marionets like all the other nationalistic groups, only difference is there were men among them willing to fight. After the cleansing, Ukraine's democracy won't have to worry about these extremists ever again.
Russia has proven itself moronic at basically every stage of the conflict.
Ukraine so far as men and material left to toss into the meat grinder.
So its whether the Russians will ruin things for themselves once again, or the Ukrainians will finally run out of geezers and engineers to dump on the front lines. Whichever comes first.
It feels like they want to keep the Russians pinned down around Bakhmut as long as possible in preparation for some type of larger offensive this spring once they get all the fancy western armor ready. After Severodonetsk/Lysychansk the Russians had to take a several month operational pause due to the causalities they sustained. If Russia does end up taking Bakhmut, which I would say is likely it was at such a high cost not just in general but also to their ability to defend the entire front.
Difference for Severodonestk and the like, was that Russia was still running a skeleton crew back then.
Their biggest issue early in the war was that they only had a few thousand guys to spare anywhere. The Ukrainians vastly outnumbered them so every advance the Russians made had to be slow and careful.
Now, they actually have troops to spare and use.
Russia's manpower situation changed vastly since then. Between prisoners, new conscripts, and mobiks they added 600,000 men. A horrendous number are injured, dead, or captured, but they still have plenty.
>Hmm we're killing (3:1, 5:1, or 7:1) Russians for every Ukrainian. >We should take advantage of this for as long as possible.
Thats literally it.
>muh KDR
lmao that is pure /k/opium. The real reason Zelinsky is going to order the defense of Blackmutt to the last Ukrainian is because muh symbolic victory. That's about it.
Even if Bakhmut ends up encircled, and all the soldiers inside end up dead or POWs you gays will still cry about le ratio. Stop with the /k/opium. The doubts about Ukraine's decisions when it comes to Bakhmut are justified

>Hmm we're killing (3:1, 5:1, or 7:1) Russians for every Ukrainian.
LOL you cucks can't even decide which specific lie to push at this point.
If you've been paying attention to the weather conditions the ground really hasn't set throughout the entire winter season and has been persistently like that since it started getting mushy last year.
Since a month ago? None. Top leadership has been throwing good after bad despite the situation being completely unfavorable for UA defense.
It was a decent suggestion to pullback in January. It was prudent to do so in February. It is mind-boggling that they're still there in March.
>despite the situation being completely unfavorable for UA defense.
There's absolutely zero indication of this, and plenty of evidence of the opposite. This strategy of yours only serves to make you look like the cheap glavset wiener you are.
>despite the situation being completely unfavorable for UA defense.

my take is the Ukies are throwing fodder to hold Bakhmut at a favorable K/D while saving their actual decent trained troops and equipment for the offensive. It's been confirmed they are sending in guys with 2 weeks of training to hold a position with minimal support until they die while the actual Ukraine soldiers act as barrier troops
shitty for the conscripts but it makes sense for Ukraine to do it
Ukraine has been doing constant troop rotations at Bakhmut, moron. Guys go in, get a couple weeks in Bakhmut, kill a few Russians, come out with combat experience, get moved elsewhere.
moron here, I just pulled an hypothesis out of my ass and I'm gonna write my uninformed fanfiction here :
Ukraine is afraid that after they take Bakhmut the Russians will stop going on the offensive and will prepare for the Ukrainian counter-offensive, and the experienced c**ts at Wagner are gonna be very annoying in defensive positions, but since they need to take Bakhmut to earn their paycheck they have to be the ones to take it. So the price is worth it for Ukraine to kill as much Wagnerites as possible.
Even if the Russians continue the offensive after Bakhmut, Wagner is probably not gonna take part in it, since Kramatorsk and Sloviansk are both bigger and more defended than Bakhmut, and it took 6 months and 50k convicts to take it, and now they don't have nearly as much ammunition as they had at the start of the battle for Bakhmut and have only 10k convicts left. So it's the last chance to take out Wagner while they're at a disadvantage going on the offensive.
Also, I know that Russian artillery is shit, but they really can't control a strip of land <10km wide ? What's happening ? Have they run out of barrels ? Is their new standard "Doesn't matter if the precision is a radius of 500m, as long as it's hasn't blow up it's still usable" ?
I doubt the NATO command would approve that, Ukrainian Generals depend on Nato for money and supplies, so I am 100% that the entire Wester military approved this plan. If so, then they approved it because it's advantageous to the Ukies otherwise they would've been 'gently' pushed to moved their troops back and don't make a fuss about it.
My favorite plot twist to subvert everyone's expectations is that Russia isn't the soviet rape fest it used to be since all the bigger Black person races are their independent countries these days (not including Chechnya, Muslim Amish are to be shot on sight for being gigger Black folk) and that Russia will just stay comfy at the seceding regions border along the greater Ukraine.
What I don't understand, not talking about you, is why everyone wants Russia to fulfill their wet dreams about war and the same with Ukraine (Invading far beyond each others capital's and doing gay butt sex on everyone). I guess it has to do with the mentality that everyone wants total war as long as they think they're safe then cry and complain that they'll have to participate once the war reaches them.
Ukraine is defending--assume 3:1 defender advantage. Russia has been stunlocked there for months, preventing them from maneuvering elsewhere. Political points--Russia has no victory to brag about.
Even the most buckbroken vatnik knows that Bakhmut is not a favorable situation for Russia--especially when they are desperately asking for Ukraine to just surrender it to Russia already.
Kill as many vatniks as possible from defensive positions, eroding their eastern frontlines because the mobiks are busy doing suicidal charges instead of digging in as they are doing in the south. When the summer offence starts, the eroded eastern frontline will force the vatniks to pivot their troops from south to east, considerably weakening their ability to defend as the poorly trained troops will be moved away from familiar defensive entrenchment to somewhere else entirely. Then abuse cracks in the vatniks defensive line to find a strong angle of attack for a quick armored offensive.
yeah but that's march 4th rather than the update yesterday from the 11th. If you read them properly it goes >Ukraine makes preparations as russians advance on the 4th >Ukrainian units pull into the western parts of the town and have set up a killzone, but there's still some risk on the flanks on the 11th
Yeah they don't know anything, the general staff is just a bunch of monkeys throwing darts at a map with city names written on it. The Ukrainians attack wherever a dart lands.
God I hate twitter, if you're not using it purely for porn then you're doing it wrong.
>Russia fights urban combat by bombing indiscriminately >Every city wiped off the map is a beating heart of the local economy gone, requiring loads of cash and years to rebuild and repopulate >Therefor, as long as the situation is favourable, we keep fighting them in one city that's already destroyed instead of retreating to the next urban area and taking the war with us
>- Will you yield the town? >- Before I lose it, I will burn it to the ground. The gas station, the salt processing plant. Every last thing in Bakhmut that drives men mad.
>Hmm we're killing (3:1, 5:1, or 7:1) Russians for every Ukrainian.
>We should take advantage of this for as long as possible.
Thats literally it.
>Noooo you h-have to retreat because w-well you just have t-to!!!
Oh they're gonna die. 100s will be trapped, but it will be regarded as a worth cost.
Take your pick of statistics, none of them are real anyway, some say the Russians are the ones with a 7:1 K:D. Its all shite.
except russians can't post a field with dozens upon dozens of dead ukrainians and can't post ukrainians dying by the dozen in 20 different videos daily. so yeah, whatever they say is a complete bullshit and projection.

That's mass execution of Russian POWs
A random field is not representative of an overall battle of the scale of Bakhmut.

>yes that's a field of dead Russians but I'm talking about a different field of dead Russians!
You do not recognize the bodies in the minefield.
Prisoners don't count, they were just bait to flush out Ukrainian positions.
Wagner is using elite and veterans in bakhmut. The prisoners thing ended more than a monmth ago.

Even the most buckbroken vatnik knows that Bakhmut is not a favorable situation for Russia--especially when they are desperately asking for Ukraine to just surrender it to Russia already.

>What's the military plan at Bakhmut?
Kill as many vatniks as possible from defensive positions, eroding their eastern frontlines because the mobiks are busy doing suicidal charges instead of digging in as they are doing in the south. When the summer offence starts, the eroded eastern frontline will force the vatniks to pivot their troops from south to east, considerably weakening their ability to defend as the poorly trained troops will be moved away from familiar defensive entrenchment to somewhere else entirely. Then abuse cracks in the vatniks defensive line to find a strong angle of attack for a quick armored offensive.
yeah but that's march 4th rather than the update yesterday from the 11th. If you read them properly it goes
>Ukraine makes preparations as russians advance on the 4th
>Ukrainian units pull into the western parts of the town and have set up a killzone, but there's still some risk on the flanks on the 11th
Yes, I posted both updates.
Just checking in, has Bakmut fallen yet or not?
Yeah they don't know anything, the general staff is just a bunch of monkeys throwing darts at a map with city names written on it. The Ukrainians attack wherever a dart lands.
God I hate twitter, if you're not using it purely for porn then you're doing it wrong.
Petitioning for tw*tterposting to be a site wide bannable offense.
VatBlack folk really do live in an alternate reality
>Russia fights urban combat by bombing indiscriminately
>Every city wiped off the map is a beating heart of the local economy gone, requiring loads of cash and years to rebuild and repopulate
>Therefor, as long as the situation is favourable, we keep fighting them in one city that's already destroyed instead of retreating to the next urban area and taking the war with us
>You have no argument, this is the #35345345345345345342323 time we claimed that we've captured Bahkmut.

Good day sar, would you like your own designated street today sar, we have a nice collection of toilet paper today sar.
>- Will you yield the town?
>- Before I lose it, I will burn it to the ground. The gas station, the salt processing plant. Every last thing in Bakhmut that drives men mad.
