once Ribityine is captured ukraine will be able to rain down HIMARS and Storm Shadows on the exposed Tokmak, pretty rapidly causing a total collapse of the russian logistical situation and allowing Ukrainian reserves held back for the exploitation to rush in and dash towards the azov sea, while the depleted russian forces in the area will essentially melt away. Putin is pretty desperate to stop this by any means neccessary which is why russians are trying to attack near Kharkiv right now to distract AFU reserves (it wont work). honestly this whole summer has been one magnificent play by ukrainian command, cheers to them
>dash towards the azov sea
That's overselling it. What it will do is make it more or less untenable for Russia to hold onto territory north and northwest of Melitopol in the long term, which in turn has very negative implications about their ability to prevent Melitopol from being partially encircled and it's supply lines choked.
Best case scenario is they make it to the Azov sea before winter
Worst case is they just strangle Russian logistics where they then make it to the Azov sea next spring or after they tank the next meat wave Putin sends in.
It's a domino that's fallen in a long line of dominoes that need to fall. A rapid push was halted, so now it's just a battle to degrade Russian forces and make them commit to bad positions or withdraw from them. So far they are commiting to holding everything, so hopefully it will be a slow fight but a quick collapse if they get to that point. Everything Ukraine is doing right now slowly increases the pressure.
>ukraine will be able to rain down HIMARS and Storm Shadows
tokmak was in himars range a long time ago. Being able to shell it with tube artillery is the next big milestone
There's really no strategic importance to the place. It's along the path where the Ukrainians have decided to push through the Russians lines, and where the Russians have decided that they were going to make a stand.

Does anyone know what the FUCK the current status of the Kerch bridge is with regard to logistic support? It got hit a string of times in the last month but I never heard more than one of its road lanes was fucked.
As an aside I am going to be absolutely goddamn THROBBING hard all winter if the Ukes manage to cut off (or at least severely hamper) supplies to Crimea in time for Winter, that whole peninsula is going to turn into the fucking Hunger Games
They can shell Tokmak from it. If you don't understand why that is important, imagine the current Russian logistics problem and amplify that by x20. It will potentially stop any Russian advancement. Basically, like the battle of the Bulge but worse, ESPECIALLY since winter is on the doorstep. You may say, "But it's only August!!"... it starts to snow in Ukraine and Russia in October...

>over a fucking century of logistics issues >do absolutely nothing to improve them and continue to use the same system that you employed during fucking WW1 >only reason russia was even able to properly mobilize during ww2 was lend lease trucks and locomotives from the states >92.7% of all locomotive equipment used by russia during ww2 was provided by lend lease
>and locomotives
US-delivered Lend-lease locomotives were actually too heavy to be used on like 90%+ of the russian rail network. Lend-Lease and soviet wartime production of locomotives and rolling stock combined were outnumbered by what the Soviets had stockpiled pre-war by somewhere around 20:1, and soviet losses of those items were overall pretty low.
>92.7% of all locomotive equipment used by russia during ww2 was provided by lend lease
Wrong, it was 92.7% of locomotives newly acquired during the war. That's because Russian domestic plants were mostly repurposed to making tanks.
Both lend lease and domestic wartime production combined only made up about 10% of the total locomotive pool, the other ~20 000 engines USSR already had before the war.
All the rails are in arty shelling range and it's the last part of the top of the region. Nothing can get across land now to the south or Crimea without artillery being in range. If they try to use the roads, they'd have to use so many vehicles it would be a slaughter for drones, rickets, missiles, alot of long range artillery plus Ukrainians already appeared to have mined the roads. Moving with a boat is bad idea.
What happens now is mud. And trains and boats are the only way to move anything unless you have heavy armor. Bradley can do it because it's height and weight and Abrams can do it with it's weight and engine. Then comes cold more Mud and snow.
Russians need to push them back or Crimea, the south and half of the east lost without the Ukrainians doing much more than blowing up a couple trucks a day.
It's Vicksburg. The whole campaign is still running, it includes Ukrainians commanders pivoting on their own call, away from a city, then half circling around robotnik completely disconnected from everyone else for 36 hours. It caused a bunch of Russians to panic and drive into their own minefields. Other than that the Shelling has started and the Meltingpool is getting ss'd.
Mostly a breach in the main defensive line.
Rate of advance will probably accerate as the rest of the first lines starts getting flanked and having logistics cut while the russian start collapsing back to the second line followed by another stalemate.
How much time in 2023 do ukies have thou? weather in ukraine is kinda uncanny (we had 30 C for 2 weeks straight) Autumn rain season might not even happen at this rate.
But winter offensive actions are completely of the table due to huge casualties rate i assume .
Winter offensives have been impossible in the past because the ground either never froze solid of it was so cold WW2 era vehicles couldn't deal.
If we supply enough jet fuel they could realistically keep advancing in extreme cold without the issues of diesel freezing but if it doesn't freeze solid all offensives will stop.
HAARP has been doing weird fuckery all year.
Last year we had the jetstream cut on the russian front line that gave europe with no winter.
So who fucking knows but its really fucking the global climate in general but are trying to pretend that global warming has suddenly exploded this year.
>but are trying to pretend that global warming has suddenly exploded this year
According to new research we've been geo-engineering the planet the whole time, so the switch to pollution-cutting methods and fuel is actually accelerating climate change.
>but are trying to pretend that global warming has suddenly exploded this year.
isn't that partly because the 2020-23 la nina ended and we're in el nino now
yeah theres a whole confluence of shit going on right now that climate change is just making worse
It's been super wet in Australia for the last few years so there was lots of plant growth and now everything is drying up just in time for a really hot summer, which means this years bushfire season is going to be one of the bad ones

Better question is how the russian forces maintain a defensive line through the winter with logistics cut off and f-16's will be active in the region by the end of the year.
the thing with F-16s is that they have access to A TON of NATO munitions, including longer range missiles and HARM can be more effectively launched from them
so while AA can make it harder for these jets to say, provide CAS, they are still perfectly capable of launching long range missiles, glide bombs and perform SEAD
They don't have a huge casualty rate, they have a suprisingly small one, and because they have been going slow and steady, they aren't likely to culminate any time soon.
The Ukrainians have Bradley's, tanks and Abrams on their homefield. There is no ticking clock. They can move around, the Russians can't. The Russians don't have the armor to move around in the mud or snow.
It's a ticking clock. When the mud starts Russians are getting fucked. It's why the Abrams are coming right before the mud. Their engines allow to just plow through it. It is not a normal tank.
It's equally as important as Novoprokopivka which is a name you'll start hearing soon and no where near as important as Tokmak which will be on the front after Novoprokopivka falls.
Some people seem to be unaware that Tomak has been well within HIMARS range since before the counter-offensive even begun. Even a Krab positioned in Orkhiv can hit it with an Excalibur.
east actually
supplies from the west can come in via crimea even after tokmak is under fire control but the only rail link running east between tokmak and Rostov on Don has been cut just outside donestk city since the start of the war
Russia will take it back with a counterattack. A new mobilization will take place soon and production capacity is ramping up. Weapons and ammunition are also being provided by North-Korean and Iranian allied, while mighty industrial nation China provides dual use electronics and other high tech necessities. Hordes of weaponised patriots will sweep into Ukraine, and take back Robotyne and much more.
Mobilization:
Marc Galeotti mentioned it in his last podcast, everything is prepared, they're just waiting for the order. Border guards won't let any cowards out this time.

They couldn't even manage the uniforms for the last mobilization.
https://armyrecognition.com/defense_news_may_2023_global_security_army_industry/russian_army_reveives_first_new_camo_uniforms_from_kalashnikov.html
Can hit the Russian logistics lines with regular arty from there, making it much harder for them to supply the southern front, meaning it's far more likely to break if supplies start running out because they cannot be restocked in time to keep up with assaults.
That village has a local church, said church has hard drives worth of blackmail porn involving children and killing children on video, that's the real reason why they are fighting hard to overtake it. Once Russia acquires the data they can start blackmailing even more people, just like how the garden gnomes do it.
A bit further down to the south are three strategic heights. If Ukraine takes those it's downhill all the way to the sea. Southern Ukraine is absurdly flat so even these tiny molehills allow you to fire control entire regions.
>Ukraine has no reserves >Mighty Russia still only has just touched on it's VAST MILITARY RESERVES
lmao you fagniks aren't even trying anymore, hope you're in the next cube pidor
just because Tokmak is within 'shelling range' of Robotyne doesn't mean the Ukranians can shell it. It is a very very bad idea to roll artillery up to Robotyne right now, Arty needs to be behind the lines at least a few KM. The ukranians still need to push the Russians another couple kilometers at the very least in order to actually be able to set up arty without getting it wasteful destroyed right away.
It's 10km from a major rail hub. It allows Ukrainians to start pushing into significantly less dense minefields and/or defenses.

Not sure how effective the F-16’s will be. There’s a lot of AA in the war.
F-16s are one of the best SEAD aircraft available. Almost purpose built for this situation.
the thing with F-16s is that they have access to A TON of NATO munitions, including longer range missiles and HARM can be more effectively launched from them
so while AA can make it harder for these jets to say, provide CAS, they are still perfectly capable of launching long range missiles, glide bombs and perform SEAD

That village has a local church, said church has hard drives worth of blackmail porn involving children and killing children on video, that's the real reason why they are fighting hard to overtake it. Once Russia acquires the data they can start blackmailing even more people, just like how the garden gnomes do it.
Fake news, Ukraine is Orthodox not Catholic.
>Orthodox
>Catholic
You are implying there is a difference, there is no difference.
There is a massive difference at the center of the schism between them, the filioque controversy
A bit further down to the south are three strategic heights. If Ukraine takes those it's downhill all the way to the sea. Southern Ukraine is absurdly flat so even these tiny molehills allow you to fire control entire regions.

From these hills you can shoot at Tokmak even with shitty tube artillery and HIMARS strike Melitopol.
Roboteen?
No indication that unites have taken robotyn. Wait for confirmation.
Not holding my breath
>Ukraine has no reserves
>Mighty Russia still only has just touched on it's VAST MILITARY RESERVES
lmao you fagniks aren't even trying anymore, hope you're in the next cube pidor
>roboteen
robo pussy of course
baste
How. When. Where are these reserves. Where is the shells. Where
just because Tokmak is within 'shelling range' of Robotyne doesn't mean the Ukranians can shell it. It is a very very bad idea to roll artillery up to Robotyne right now, Arty needs to be behind the lines at least a few KM. The ukranians still need to push the Russians another couple kilometers at the very least in order to actually be able to set up arty without getting it wasteful destroyed right away.
a point on the map worth having but they need more to threaten anything important
sure is weird how theres only one ukraine thread up the same day a major political player in russian politics is assassinated by the FSB
Why is this village named after a Sanic villain?
stalin was big fan
