Here he shows the second encirclement
And one way more important to Ukraine since as you see its last og line that didn't moved.
If they lose that line this would happen
they will lose everything till that yellow like and battle of konstantin and chasiv yar would take place at same time
As you see the map is full with triangles and that means significant landscape. That place is basically death trap for offensive but nevertheless Ukrainian planned (or at least Zelenskyy been demanding) to attack in that direction and capture Horlivka
In this article from October 2023
When I raised these claims with a senior military officer, he said that some commanders have little choice in second-guessing orders from the top. At one point in early October, he said, the political leadership in Kyiv demanded an operation to "retake" the city of Horlivka, a strategic outpost in eastern Ukraine that the Russians have held and fiercely defended for nearly a decade. The answer came back in the form of a question: With what? "They don't have the men or the weapons," says the officer. "Where are the weapons? Where is the artillery? Where are the new recruits?"
But don't worry Ukraine did captured Horlivka
They basically captured one of those triangles on the map and called it "capture of Horlivka" it was basically krinky little, they held that triangle for mb couple of days but the story was in media for a month.
I already many times wrote the reason why:
Ukraine send all its assault reserves to north Kharkiv to have 6 to 1 advantage over Russian
And they were pushed back
Majority analyst were expecting Ukrainian success since the goal of Russian was just to pull Ukrainian reserves so Ukrainian don't counter attack in ocheretyne and etc
Yet Ukraine managed to lose
Ukraine legit hopped to "counter offensive" this year Horlivka or from belohorivka Lugansk. Booth those directions are
and offensive capabilities gone.
But when everything looks bad pro khohol, don't forget you have f16 and
Russia tho suggested if Ukraine blows up Crimea bridge Russia will blow up "Kyiv Reservoir"
Wikipedia:
Worries about possible destruction arose again in February 2022 during the Kyiv offensive. Russian forces took control of the power plant on 25 or 26 February.[1] Ukrainian forces recaptured it on 26 February.[2] It was claimed that Ukrainian air defenses intercepted a missile flying towards the dam. Interfax stated that if the dam were to fail, flooding could destroy "the entire left bank of Kyiv".
So go Ukraine, it will literally make north east Ukraine very hard to supply

Have Russians managed pull off even one(1) complete(not just a partial one with a botched retreat like Avdiivka) encirclement in the last two years? I'm under the impression that they haven't and that such a thing is very difficult in 2024 due to all the drones and sensors making it hard to surprise and catch the enemy off guard.

They are definitely gonna do it, just give it some more time. Maybe 14 days?

No, but it's also considered full encirclements are risky because the book they follow "art of war" says an encircled opponents will fight very fiercely so you should always give him opportunities to retreat and shot at him when he tries to retreat.

r-slurred way of stating your point. True encirclement means people encircled fully plan on fighting to the death. That outcome leads to unexpectedly higher casualties if it is anything other than shooting fish in a barrel. Setting up for an unorganized retreat, i.e. giving the appeareance of a future encirclement is the best bet. If you want to talk about this shit and use the triangles and make yourself feel like an armchair general don't write like an absolute fricking dumbass.
