  • What I recall is that in the south, Russia has 3 big lines of defense. After that, there’s very little all the way to the coast. If that’s true, and if Ukraine has broken through the first line, then that could be taken to mean they are 1/3rd of the way to making massive gains in the south. For a while their “summer counteroffensive” had been kind of a joke because it wasn’t even confronting that first line, but if what some western media is saying is true, then that might no longer be the case.

    Of course, without knowing casualties on either side, it’s tough to know what “breaking through the first line” even really entails. Like if this was the culmination of months of costly fighting with little gain, then it would not mean the same thing as it would if like idk Russia was taking massive losses trying to hold the line or something.
