Yeah. That's how war is. When we say they took the town, it could be a destroyed one, but there will still be usable infrastructure, especially basements.
There are rumours of SF action in Tetyanivka, meaning the SF crossed the river on foot. In case the Russians take Pasika, then it's over for the area, the UAF will have to retreat again.
In any case, this is the area I was talking about, where the Ukrainians blew up the bridge and abandoned their conscripts. If the conscripts retreat without orders, then you know their fate.
That's only your impression, which has not been very good anyway.

The work of Russian special forces in Ukraine was caught on video. The purpose of the special forces was to find a mobile Ukrainian crew with a mortar. According to the results of the battle, two servicemen of Ukraine were destroyed and one was taken prisoner, the wounded was provided with medical assistance.
Russian troops have discovered the first abandoned examples of new Western weapons in Ukraine. The first caterpillar armored vehicle YPR-765 delivered earlier from Holland to Ukraine was found abandoned. The reason why the crew abandoned the YPR-765 armored personnel carrier is not clear, visually the equipment is intact. It is possible that the armored vehicle broke down, since the deliveries were not of new models, but of equipment from storage, or the crew abandoned it to avoid death. Armored vehicle YPR-765 is equipped with aluminum armor, which provides protection against small arms. The 267 horsepower Detroit Diesel Allison 6V-53T engine provides a top speed of 61 kilometers per hour and a range of 490 kilometers.

Private Indian refiners have bought a lot of oil for exports. But there are long term benefits to be had once the oil ban hits.
Looks like Russian defence importers want to work with Russia via India.

It strikes me that several people mentioned that the Ukrainian border was ideal for a tank invasion, and this was Russia's reason for invading Ukraine to stop NATO doing such. Seems that it's not so easy after all huh?
