Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments

Yeah what i do not understand is why ukraine is funneling so many territorial defence forces into donbass while seemingly keeping a lot of their better trained/experienced troops in reserve.

Or taking a “no step back” approach around severodonetsk.
Unless they really are having a larger counter-offensive planned in august.

Territorial Defense is the Kiev regime's counterpart of Assad's National Defense Force NDF. They are poorly trained and poorly equipped.

HIMARS is easy target for Mi-28NM which tracks it by radar from 50 km away and blow it up using Hermes BVR missile from 20 km away.

Mi-28N/NM attack choppers to defend Donbas children from Kiev regime export downgraded M777 and HIMARS artillery

These export downgraded M777 and HIMARS lack long range missiles such as Excalibur range 40 km and ATACMS range 300 km so they have range about 30 km with basic unguided howitzer rounds and rockets, however they usually fire from a distance of about 10 km or else it's too inaccurate and there is...

Dead men walking. Kherson is flat land. There is nowhere to run. Nowhere to hide from Mi-28N/NM.

I am not military man but no step back is nonsense. Or even suicide. The battle at Donbas is artillery battle. Russian artillery fires 15,000 shells per day as per estimate count.
As for best troops, they are fighting the Russians at the front now. They are the most experienced as they fight the separatists since years.

Germany’s general staff says despite high casualties the Russians just managed to take 4 percent plus of territories at Donbas since the battle began. That’s not much.

Russians are willing to sacrifice 10 million men to retake Donbas. Russia has 148 million people compared to Ukraine has 36 million people. Unless 1 Ukrainian can kill 10 Russians the war is lost for Ukraine. It's a simple numbers game.

10 million? Unrealistic. At best Putin can recruit one million if taking in the fresh conscripts. Two million If he calls general mobilization.

Donbas is the heart of Russia. 10 million men is a small price to pay for retaking the heart of the nation.

Donbas is not the heart of Russia. That’s something for fake story makers.
The Wolga river is the heart of Russia, much like the Red river to Vietnamese, Yellow river for Chinese. Stalin ordered the defenders to fight until the last man at Stalingrad. The city is at the Wolga.
Donbas is important for Russia to take because Donbas is the industrial heart of Ukraine. Once Donbas is destroyed Ukraine is finished. So thinks Putin.
