good point. um, we are now getting a close-up look at some of the material the russians are sending into eastern ukraine. into this donbas region, this convoy. eight-mile long convoy of heavy artillery it looks like. now, there is this unity of command structure so instead of attacking on seven different fronts, this russian offensive will be much more coordinated, a hot more effective. what will ukrainian forces need to do to sustain an effective resistance? yeah, that s right. i think that s right. vladimir putin wants this general officer to fight, you know, unity of command and coordinate fires between maneuver. they also lead with artillery but now bring tanks and infantry behind them. i think the ukraine forces are going to need to get down in defensive positions. use the javelins and use what tanks and what they ve even taken from the russian military and and pick and choose the places they want to defend. bring the russian offense into different kill zones, and choke poin
