Soledar... Lots of questions about Soledar.

Let me put it this way:

Yes, it's a living hell there now, but...

First of all, Soledar has performed, is
performing and will continue to perform

his functions to the limit of capacity, just
like any other settlement in the combat zone.

Second. The Russian side, in order
to reinforce one area with strength

and resources, should weaken
the other in the combat zone.

And that is exactly what they are
doing now in the Soledar area.

Over the past six months, the Bakhmut direction,
as such a location, has transformed into a

full-fledged bridgehead, in terms of the
intensity and scale of combat operations,

dragging the enemy's colossal offensive
resource into one endless meat grinder.

The Bakhmut bridgehead is a black
hole for the Russian occupiers and

even something more devastating and
fatal than the famous Chornobaivka.

The resources that could have been
used in the Kharkov bridgehead,

the right-bank Kherson region, and
in other directions were milled here.

Overall, the situation in the Soledar area,
as of January 11, is exactly as it should

have been - the city continues to fulfill
its tactical and even strategic functions.

Prigozhin, having decided to display an element
of strategic genius, drove himself into a trap.

To take the shabby convicts from under Bakhmut
and try to massively push Soledar with this mass

in order to show Putin this city as some
epic achievement of the Vagner group in

six months of endless meat grinder, and in the
end to nullify the available resources - yes,

it is in this genius of any "Putin’s
chef" who thinks he’s a general.

And the fact? In fact, with his reflexivity around
Soledar, Prigozhin created a picture that had an

informational and even moral-psychological
effect, and practically he is now in search.

In search, not of a strong shoulder, but
of a resource, to compensate for losses.

Yes, again this compensation,
but how else did they want ?

It is expected that the 4th Battalion tactical
group from the 2nd Guard Army and the 2nd

Battalion tactical group from the 20th Division
will soon arrive at the Bakhmut parade ground.

However, this will not be enough to close the
issue of Bakhmut for Russian forces and even more

so, after the Prigozhin jump, these 6 Battalion
tactical groups will not have an effective impact.

That is, in the Soledar area Prigozhin
has also disrupted a promising strike

on Bakhmut with conditionally
fresh Battalion tactical groups,

the efficiency of which will now be many times
less than if he had not reflexed on Soledar.

And meanwhile the "symbol of defeats" - General
Alexander Lapin was appointed by Putin as the head

of the General Staff of the Ground Forces. This
is a spit in the face of Prigozhin and Kadyrov,

who pulled too many blankets over themselves,
but did not bring the promised results.

The Kremlin put the brakes on Kadyrov
back around the beginning of December.

Now it seems that it is the turn of Putin's cook,

too. This means that the unlimited
resources for Bakhmut may soon be closed.

We watch, and the systematic
grinding of Russian troops continues.
