Any possibility that the Ukies intentionally lure them to fully capture the remaining area of Bakhmut (Artyomovsk)?

Ukraine had lost the city the moment supply roads got under enemy fire control. Had you seen the road of death through Khromovo? It was massive attrition pressure for Ukrainian side. Only reason why they had not retreated earlier are PR for Zelenskiy i suppose.

Ammo depot of the 72nd Mechanized Brigade of the UAF found in Konstantinovka and gets hit by PGM munition artillery.


Another ammo depot found by the Russian 6th Army Artillery group by tracking Ukrainian trucks entering and exiting the warehouse. Although not mentioned, the colored targeting reticles means this is a Krasnopol or some laser guided PGM strike.


Lancet kill videos of the day.

Some Ukrainian radar hit by a Lancet.


Ukrainian howitzer found and hit by Lancet. Despite precautionary measures, it's not hard to find artillery hidden in forest lines. First find the road, then search the forest lines next to the road, or watch for any firing from the forest lines.


The video says Russian Far East volunteers so this can a BARS with Siberian volunteers or a brigade with Siberian soldiers such as either the 40th or 155th Marine Brigades. Two other things of note. The colored reticles indicate Krasnopol targeting and the video also mentions the use of the brand new Malva SPG (see Russian Military forum thread for what's it's all about). If that's true, this will be the first reported case of the Malva in combat. The target victim is a Ukrainian truck used to transport personnel although it's not clear if the truck is carrying passengers when it was destroyed.

Its taken already.
I would say the biggest change would be air defense sales. It would be much harder to conduct any operation for US in any country if there is risk to face modern AD systems.
US SEADs is too good, you not only need lots of systems, but training, doctrine ...
Meanwhile a P-800 can rekt a American boat, which would be a much bigger loss +the damage the batery can make on international trade, its a bigger geopolitical weapon I would say as I said in my previous post (deleted now by mods ...)

US SEADs had not faced decent AD for a long time(Iraq had outdated AD system and no ability to buy any of it). So how effective it would be in reality are question that we do not have answer. There is reason why there was such political pressure about AD systems to Iran.
