The sad thing is that Maryinka, like Artyomovsk, Pavlovka, Ugledar, is not surrounded.
The Donetsk front is dense, any wedge that enters the enemy defenses with the aim of enveloping can be “bitten off” from the flanks with the danger of falling into the cauldron.
Therefore, forces are beating head on.
But when Marinka is finished off, then we will then be able to attack on the flank both the neighboring Krasnogorovka and Ugledar - this is already a threat to Avdeevka, Kurakhov.
It is clear why such battles for Maryinka?
And we will definitely take it.
This settlement in the immediate rear is already a support for further actions, this and the fields around will already become ours, advanced command posts will move forward, infantry and communication with their temporary deployment points.
The bad thing is that in doing so, we will occupy the former Ukrainian positions, which are known to the enemy in detail by their approaches and the quality of their security.
But we cannot find new places and shelters in Maryinka.
Let me remind you that we are acting, albeit supplemented, but with the old forces that started the NWO.
The mobilized troops do not join the cause en masse - they study.
