It is to maximize the casualties and rate of attrition for the battle. Most losses come during the hasty withdrawal into the open. Or at least that is the highest or most favorable rate. The cities of Toretsk and Chasiv Yar just aren't at that point yet. They will first get two sides or positions to attack the city from simultaneously to pin down the defense. Then once that is in place they will develop the pincers to encircle or close off their exit to a narrow road of death and catch them trying to escape during the withdrawal to maximize their losses. That's one major reason the AFU isn't taking less losses than the Russian military even though they are the defender. They are developing both cities for envelopment but it just hasn't progressed far enough yet with Toretsk probably being the furthest along.
@@The_Prince_Of_Crows *"That's one major reason the AFU isn't taking less losses than the Russian military even though they are the defender."* Nice cope and self-delusion, crow.

The battle for Kurakhove has been a slow grind, not a collapse, like the vast majority of the battles in this US/NATO-Russia Borderlands War, some faster grinds, some slower. Perhaps the only unexpected collapses have been Avdiika and Kursk. Probably some of the slowest grinds right now are Chasiv Yar and Toretsk. But I understand that readers of English for some reason are fascinated by the word "collapse", it's used in finance too all the time, so writers use it all the time for attention.
Part of that is the timing and the two seasons it has been conducted in. Rasputitsa and early winter where the mud is as difficult as the defense is. Plus there was a full rotation done as it began. It really hasn't been a very difficult grind though. Just not as fast as some over the summer. The encirclement was actually pretty quick. Especially from the north and it is in it's final stage now. Had the industrial area been on the eastern side of the city it would have gone much faster too.
Zelensky didn't try to prevent the conflict through diplomacy because he lacks honor and integrity. In 2014 there was a coup. Soon after, there was a massacre in Odessa (dozens of people were burned alive). Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed. A civil war broke out due to the rise in ethnic tensions. For 8 years the Ukrainian military was indiscriminately shelling civilians living in Donbas. If Zelensky honored the Minsk agreement and pledged neutrality, none of this would have happened. The 8 year civil war would have ended and Donbas would have remained part of Ukraine. War is the ultimate failure of diplomacy. Zelensky, Poroshenko, Merkel and Hollande admitted that Ukraine had no intention to honor the Minsk agreements. Who didn't want peace? Who advised against the 2022 peace talks in April? Hint: someone visited Zelensky in Kiev at that time. Russia's national security was compromised once NATO began to expand eastwards. Russia clearly stated that Ukraine joining NATO was a red line (November 2021) and unfortunately this concern was never taken seriously. The Russians openly stated: if nothing changes, we will be forced to act in order to defend our national security. Enhancing the national security of one country at the expense of another is unacceptable. The Russians have legitimate security concerns. 20th September, 2021: Ukraine launched military drills with US and NATO. NATO is not a defensive alliance. NATO illegally bombed Yugoslavia (a direct violation of the U.N. Charter). We should never forget what they did to Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq etc. Who blew up the pipeline causing an environmental disaster? Zelensky banned all opposition and arrested a leading priest. Zelensky tried to invoke article 5 under false pretenses. Remember the incident in Poland. Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed. Poroshenko said, “Our children will go to schools and kindergartens-theirs will hide in the basements”. Russians will never forget the 2014 Odessa massacre. The whole world needs to know about it. Why was Denis Kireev eliminated? He was a member of Ukraine's negotiating team during the peace negotiations. He wanted to help his country. Ukraine has a hit list. They target artists, journalists and ordinary citizens. Hundreds of children are on this list. 13 year old Faina Savenkova was placed on this list. Pink Floyd's Roger Waters is on this list. Jimmy Dore (American stand-up comedian, podcaster) and Aaron Maté (Canadian writer and journalist) are on this list. There is evidence that Ukrainian troops have been indiscriminately shelling civilians in Donbas (they used petal mines and targeted areas where there was no military presence). The azov troops trapped in the azovstal steelworks in Mariupol used human shields. They refused to allow civilians to leave despite of humanitarian corridors being present. Russia held a proposed cease fire in order for the civilians to leave, but azov would not allow the civilians to leave. Ukraine has committed many acts of terrorism (car bombs and other forms of assassination). Darya Dugina (journalist) R.I.P. The first terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed the truck driver and the individuals in the adjacent car (innocent civilian victims). The second terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed two parents and severely injured their young daughter. I have done a lot of research and it took me a long time to write this comment. I have stated a lot of facts and I have given my honest opinion. I have provided a brief summary of events that took place. In order to explain this whole situation in great detail, a book would need to be written. Hopefully someone will write an UNBIASED book, stating facts and allowing the readers to form their own judgments. Everything I said can be fact checked and verified.

"Azov cannot be able to come into the region and dictate, through uncontestable policing and bureaucratic control, NOR/AS your present administration cannot likewise be like Azov here, impeding lawful military administration." - the large ukrainian force in the north, lacking Russian opposition: terms. So ukraine can protect it's military from the ukrainian regime, while making an admission of ukraine's desire for sovereignty. ___ wasn't that the news on the media? __ ukraine can organize their offensive from there, so long as a corrupt administration is not extorting the military staff. So russia can monitor that the military of ukraine is NOT being extorted by a corrupt administration.
it makes sense historically, prior to missiles, that your military head office would be on the front of the battlefield, and russia has no interests in going farther west. It's also convenient for your troops to move to and from battle, replenish themselves, get help and advocacy... whatever they need.
"we are not interested in moving west, so its acceptable and not aggressive nor escalating for you to put a head-office there. if that is not a terrorist regime office."
they allowed the ukrainian military to displace themselves from the corrupt administration. Russia admitted that: " "even though NATO is considered to ourselves a terrorist organization," if we escalate the conflict by attacking or moving against this Base of Operations we would be antagonized on an international stage for our infidelity. "
People in the Donbas wanted a referendum then but didn't have enough backing. Same happened again in 2000 but they just couldn't get it done. 2014 galvanized the people and if not for the fascist militia like Right Sector, Combat 18, Azov and others being used to intimidate the population and occupy cities it would have been freed long ago. That's what many people outside of Ukraine don't understand. The idea of leaving Ukraine for Russia isn't new and nor is the desire for referendums. They began in 1991 at the beginning of the post Soviet era.
What many sane minded ppl think is that, it's all the PR stunt with the lives in the front line? Russia is making superb progress and ukraine is doing superb PR

Oh look a coping pro-UA account that has nothing to offer but an insult because the information being offered doesn't align perfectly with his ideal narrative.
It’s actually 20% also WW1 became a disaster for Germany while France controlled 0% of its territory. Also the war started in 2022, in a war of attrition you can fight for as long as you have weapons, men, supply routes, and fortifications, start taking those away and it turns into maneuver warfare very quickly. Ukraine is running out of men, weapons and fortifications specifically around the regions near Avdiivka, the more Russia pushes the less fortifications there are and the more they can push, every battle costs Ukraine men and every battle costs them weapons.
Ukraine has rolling blackouts. No heating. Over 1 million soldiers have fallen. Millions have fled the country leaving the country in financial turmoil. Ukranian infrastructure is destroyed. So yes its a disaster.

And everybody knew they were kicked out. One of the headlines they used was "stuation in Soledar is difficult", so it became a meme.
I identify as the first. Respect my pronouns: the first/his firstness.
why your map don't show the fortifications? weebunion?
The yellow lines are the fortifications...
It does. It's just that each time its refreshed the filters disappear. You need to reactivate them by clicking in the various "fortifications" squares located in the menu bar on the left side of the map.
With the help of the inhabitants and political leaders of present-day Transnistria, Russia will remake the Transnistria of 1941-1944, which in the north connected with Romania. This will transform the economy of Transnistria for the better.
Transnistria is undefendable if Ukraine decides to take it on.
Zelensky starts to get really antsy whenever he hears Ukraine is about to lose another coke plant. 😂😂😂
I like how Weeb does not assume than anyone among the subscribers know what coke is and what happens when someone else captures the only coke plant left in the country (the had another one in Avdeyevka before). Upd: Before you guys tell me about use of CO for reduction... It's not even important if Ukraine has the technology. They are just going to rely on NATO for steelmaking.
Where exactly will that NATO steel-making take place?
Mein Freund fragte mich, was ich mir zu meinem Geburtstag wünsche. Ich sagte: "Überrasche mich." Er kam in einem riesigen Geschenkkarton mit nichts als einer Schleife dran. Gut gespielt✨

Please, (only a suggestion) change the colour of Ukrainians capture 2 eg. PURPLE (closest colour 2 Ukrainians BLUE)... it's sometimes difficult 2 distinguished between Russian/ Ukrainians captures because the colours currently being used r nearly similar 🙏🏼

this shit is taking too long
Which of these are the weakest fighters:
A. Vietnamese rice farmers
B. Afghan goat herders
C. Ukrainian N*zis with swastika tattoos backed by the US/EU
The stalemate continues ....
a stalemate that sees the front since one year moving in only one direction.
@@MrRugbylane One side is desperate for the stalemate to end..the other side not so much..
@@MoreAwsomeMetal It moved so much that Ukraine only has held onto 99% of the land that it had two years ago. That's a stalemate if ever there was one.
@@MrRugbylaneThen I wonder why the Ukrainians that holds 99% of the land they held onto 2 years ago are so eager for a ceasefire and a peace treaty?
@@MrRugbylane coping hard are you?
"Azov cannot be able to come into the region and dictate, through uncontestable policing and bureaucratic control, NOR/AS your present administration cannot likewise be like Azov here, impeding lawful military administration." - the large ukrainian force in the north, lacking Russian opposition: terms. So ukraine can protect it's military from the ukrainian regime, while making an admission of ukraine's desire for sovereignty. ___ wasn't that the news on the media? __ ukraine can organize their offensive from there, so long as a corrupt administration is not extorting the military staff. So russia can monitor that the military of ukraine is NOT being extorted by a corrupt administration.
for some reason that feels like something i remember watching in the news
they sent a cup bearer, just as testimony the Ukrainian military isn't being extorted.
it makes sense historically, prior to missiles, that your military head office would be on the front of the battlefield, and russia has no interests in going farther west. It's also convenient for your troops to move to and from battle, replenish themselves, get help and advocacy... whatever they need.
"we are not interested in moving west, so its acceptable and not aggressive nor escalating for you to put a head-office there. if that is not a terrorist regime office."
they allowed the ukrainian military to displace themselves from the corrupt administration. Russia admitted that: " "even though NATO is considered to ourselves a terrorist organization," if we escalate the conflict by attacking or moving against this Base of Operations we would be antagonized on an international stage for our infidelity. "
Disaster for Ukraine happened on 24th August 1991, when it started to exist.
People in the Donbas wanted a referendum then but didn't have enough backing. Same happened again in 2000 but they just couldn't get it done. 2014 galvanized the people and if not for the fascist militia like Right Sector, Combat 18, Azov and others being used to intimidate the population and occupy cities it would have been freed long ago. That's what many people outside of Ukraine don't understand. The idea of leaving Ukraine for Russia isn't new and nor is the desire for referendums. They began in 1991 at the beginning of the post Soviet era.
What many sane minded ppl think is that, it's all the PR stunt with the lives in the front line? Russia is making superb progress and ukraine is doing superb PR

Stop Yr lies. U forever mentioning Encirclement, Encirclement, Encirclement every week for 2 yrs but eventually nothing ?
Keep coping or face the truth.
Lol? Maybe you wouldn't hear about encirclements all the time if UA wasn't so incompetent and you hear 'nothing' because the pockets close and then UA loses territory and sometimes men and equipment as well.
The Russians are taking way too long
According to who? This is still a short war by any standard. Three whole years on February 24th 2025. There's sieges that have lasted longer than this war including some that lasted decades.

How hypocritical is your Telegram channel? I was blocked before 3 weeks saying things that have now been confirmed by other sources. You've created a really great echo chamber where opinions are more valuable than facts. And my account was only blocked because I said that North Korean soldiers are active. I also posted proof, but nobody was interested And 3 weeks later you act as if it were new information? Bs
What do you consider to be proof?
The situation in Moscow is difficult.
@@theempire491 why
10 years later: "helloo, and welcome..."
Oh, look, a Pro-Russian propaganda channel who doesn't know their ass from their elbow.
genius, open the pro-Ukrainian resources updating maps of military operations, and you will see that they are no different from the maps broadcast on this channel.
Oh look a coping pro-UA account that has nothing to offer but an insult because the information being offered doesn't align perfectly with his ideal narrative.
You’ve been saying disaster for Ukraine for the past 4 years and yet Russia only controls 15% of it😭😭😭
Pro Russian Forces hold a lot more than 15%, more like 30%. Russia is Pushing Back!
It’s actually 20% also WW1 became a disaster for Germany while France controlled 0% of its territory.
Also the war started in 2022, in a war of attrition you can fight for as long as you have weapons, men, supply routes, and fortifications, start taking those away and it turns into maneuver warfare very quickly.
Ukraine is running out of men, weapons and fortifications specifically around the regions near Avdiivka, the more Russia pushes the less fortifications there are and the more they can push, every battle costs Ukraine men and every battle costs them weapons.
Can you see it? Watch the encirclements and the land grab by Russia each day. Dumb
Ukraine has rolling blackouts. No heating. Over 1 million soldiers have fallen. Millions have fled the country leaving the country in financial turmoil. Ukranian infrastructure is destroyed. So yes its a disaster.
No, he hasn't, and Russia occupies a lot more than 15%. Are you so detached from the facts or simply desperate for attention?
Merry Christmas Weeb
