> But even if the Pokrovsk-Myrnohrad pocket somehow holds over the short term, the three-sided encirclement on the flanks of the agglomeration — and the deadly gauntlet of Russian drones hanging over remaining logistics routes that comes with it — means defending the pocket will no longer present a favorable attritional fight for Ukraine.
I have no idea how the situation on the ground really is, but I hope that Ukraine so long into this war has learned not to get encircled any more. Ukraine has enough ground/land, but every life on the defender’s side matters.
