If you follow the course of hostilities now,
the main point is not Bakhmut, but Vugledar.

The occupants attack there most fiercely. About
Bakhmut I have already told - all of its assaults

are simply pointless, the enemy's linear tactics
only lead to a slow gnawing of the defense at

the cost of monstrous losses. In 11 months, the
Russians have advanced about 50 km in this area,

it just does not make sense. Even if they push
through and force the Ukrainians to withdraw,

they will simply run into a new line of defense
and that will be it - start all over again.

Vugledar is another matter. They are so eager to
go there because it will give them an opportunity

to move Ukrainian artillery away from Volnovakha,
which is the most important supply hub. Also, this

breakthrough could give them access to Kurakhovo
to overhang the right flank of the AFU defense in

the Donetsk region. Putin has apparently set the
task of "liberating the Donetsk region by spring"

and preventing the Ukrainians from advancing in
the Luhansk region. However, so far their success

has been more than modest. Vugledar is perfectly
fortified - the village stands amid clear fields,

so it is impossible to get up unnoticed. Artillery
is shooting the attackers on the approaches.

That's how they once again fried
a "Pacific herring" in Vugledar...

Well, you get the idea. I mean the occupants,

specifically the 155th Separate Marine
Guards Brigade of the Russian Navy.

That is the one that came to the aid of the
mercenaries of the Wagner group. I take it it

can now "proudly" be called "Pooing their pants
twice near Ugledar". In 2022 and now: there are

already timid rumors on Russian resources that at
best a company is left of the brigade. After all,

as expected, despite the massive, intense and
unprecedented pressure on Vugledar that began last

week, the Russian forces had actually deflated by
the beginning of this week. Not yet permanently,

but they no longer have the strength and
capabilities they have. A lot of enemy equipment

and personnel have been eliminated, which once
again shows the pointlessness of such assaults.

Having reported the other day that the brave
Marines were already in control of the town, as

of today a considerable part of the units of the
Pacific herring have lost their fighting ability

due to losses and need to be withdrawn to restore
it, otherwise they will cease to exist altogether.

In fact, Vugledar, quite expectedly,
withstood another onslaught of the occupants.

It is possible to take a long time to
analyze what allowed the city to be held,

whether it was the presence in the Marines'
units of the overwhelming majority of recruits,

who are not even familiar with the smell of the
sea, or the enemy's problems with artillery,

but the important point is that
the invaders will not stop there.

Units will be rebuilt at the expense of the next
cannon fodder and may even form additional ones,

so such an attack can happen again
in a month and a half to two months.

And only the superiority of AFU artillery,
its accuracy and sufficient presence,

as well as mortar support, can
neutralize such waves at the root.

Right now we are at the point where the Russian
forces are losing their artillery advantage,

but at the same time they can
continue their offensive with

the component against which artillery
should be used. Therefore, the issue of

providing artillery to Ukraine should be
no less acute than the issue of aviation.

We are watching. There comes a critical moment

of the winter campaign - the enemy
is trying to seize the initiative.
