I don't see any artillery, I guess they ran into a minefield, so I'm assuming they were probing and trying to find a path, the lead vehicle got disabled by a mine and thus they retreated. The 2nd Bradley to be hit by a mine, fuck me, it disabled it but the crew came out completely unharmed. Nice covering fire from the Bradley with the camera too, clearly there was something else in the distance. All in all, the losses are unfortunate but it looked like a professional, orderly and calm retreat, a nice use of covering fire, a nice use of smokes, looks like mostly everyone got out unharmed and will live to fight another day. Need to do something about those minefields...But they're everywhere... |
I was listening to an American journalist who's living in Ukraine on a recent David Pakman podcast, who said that it's estimated to take several decades to clear the mines planted by Russia. Seriously sad/infuriating.
