Russia started reinforcing this peninsula in recent weeks as a Grad MLRS launching platform. Taking this peninsula, as daring and bold as this amphibious attack may be, would cause Russia to be flanked in a place it was not expecting.
This is a tremendous and bold plan, and extremely rewarding if successful. The objective appears to be Crimea proper, and even if it's not, Russia has no choice but to start reinforcing this area again (which may reopen new surprise offensives such as the Kharkiv offensive that was possible a few months ago). It's a game of wack a mole. |
This is effin' brilliant, theres only one road onto the peninsula and it is visible all the way from Kherson, the Ukraines can wholly cut off the Russians were as they can happily resupply by boat, the terrain looks marshy and not much use to armour, this is next level strategy
