The Russians burned the Ukrainian positions with a barrage of thermobaric rockets: they entered Bakhmut - the Ukrainians abandoned their position

the russians are going to wait till hellish winter to being their major ground assault into north eastern ukraine. they will also strike from the north at the same time. most of the AFU have gotten giddy and went "all in" in the south . they are overextending BIG TIME (something you never ever do in battle) and will lose it all . they will be surrounding by the cauldron.

they have fallen for the trap. instead of going all in to the east, they choose to go "all in" to the south, so russia has total freedom to go in to the north east.

That's what happens when you get overly excited in battle

Amen.
