Russia Rains Thermite On Vuhledar
Published 1 month ago
After a nearly two-year siege, at the cost of several thousand men and a thousand vehicles, Russian forces are on the cusp of capturing Vuhledar, Donetsk. Footage shows Russian incendiary munitions raining down on the settlement, a siege technique that has been previously demonstrated in other battles, such as Mariupol. Although Vuhledar appears inconsequential when viewed on the map, the town is where the Russian southern front and eastern front meet, making it strategically valuable. Russia may be able to "cut the corner" and potentially take significant territory north and west of the city, depending on where Ukrainian forces fall back.
