Looks like Ukraine is itensifying the raids and trying to get some bridgehead established for future attacks. This sounds like a smart idea if the terrain allows it by now; an attack there may very well force Russia to dispatch troops from the other fronts (and from the attack on Avdiivka) to halt the Ukrainian troops if they'd manage some kind of breakthrough in the region. Push the Russian troops far enough from the bridges for them to become out of range for conventional artillery, and an offensive over the Dniepr could start in earnest. But this is pure speculation and I want to see what the future developments are. For now, it seems like Ukraine holds a small strip of land on the left bank and don't seem to fully retreat over the river anymore, defending and reinforcing this strip. This is probably also to probe the Russian response to an actual invasion from there, so if there's no meaningful response/counterattack, I'm sure Ukraine will try to recover more land as they can. On another note, this also makes it impossible for Russia to rotate troops to that region to "rest" them, as the front wouldn't be quiet either. |
Really confusing what is happening aside from Russians panicking.

Apparently there's Ukrainians rolling around with a mortar on the left bank 💀

The Russians are making it sound like some Ukrainians are just casually wondering around, Lol.
Nobody seems to know what the fuck is going on, Lol.
Until Ukraine establishes a bridgehead though and gets heavy equipment over, I will remain cautious.
