So what Ukrainian are doing to combat a loss of strategical city ? Pump more soldiers in Kursk region :marseyxd:

Today iskanders were hitting some barracks in Sumy

47 brigade was located there. 37 dead and unknown number of dead.

It's because it has M-2s that the general staff in Kyiv keeps sending the 47th Mechanized Brigade into action. When a powerful Russian force launched an offensive along the Avdiivka-Pokrovsk axis in October, the generals ordered the 47th Mechanized Brigade to hurry from southern Ukraine to eastern Ukraine—and join the defense.

Four months later, Avdiivka fell as its ammunition-starved garrison retreated, partly under the cover of the M-2s' autocannons. The eastern front line briefly stabilized and, in April, the 47th Mechanized Brigade was finally preparing to depart the front line for its first unit-wide rest in nine months.

But then the Russians broke through Ukrainian defenses around the village of Ocheretyne, launching a steady westward march that would ultimately bring them to within six miles of Pokrovsk. The 47th Mechanized Brigade turned around and rejoined the fight around Ocheretyne—and kept fighting as the Russians advanced.

Five months later, the 47th Mechanized Brigade had lost most of its Assault Breachers, a third of its Abrams and another 20 or so of its Bradleys. Even with the hard work of a front-line repair battalion, turning wrenches to speed battered M-2s back into battle, the 47th Mechanized Brigade is apparently running low on fully operational Bradleys.

When western source dunk on khohol that hard, reality is a lot worse.

That should change as the brigade settles into its long-delayed break and extra M-2s arrive by ship, train and truck. How long the 47th Mechanized Brigade will get to rest and reset is hard to predict. The Russians are still advancing toward Pokrovsk and also making small gains north and south of the city.

They got zero break :marseyexcited:

They were send to hold pokrovsk directing then when they failed, Zelenskyy decided to send them to Kursk where they now getting bombed.

Even if they use all the M-2s they won't push it through in Kursk. Russian improved its drones and glide missiles by a lot and in Kursk Russia can use its allies. So even if khohols thinking that holding that territory until Trump becomes president it will give them something it won't. Russia has to many cards to play and funnies is agree to freeze the lines but let NK continue fighting.

So retrospective it will be a hilarious event. Khohols holding with all their elites 500 square km where 10k people lived in hope they use it to trade for something big but end up losing it anyway and losing those soldiers in an offence :marseyxd:

Even that pro khohol Wikipedia that denied capture of bakhmut for 5 months, can't lie that Ukrainian loses are bigger in Kursk
