Ukraine SACRIFICED Entire Brigade To Hold Myrnohrad

Military Situation in Myrnohrad

The video details the complete encirclement of Myrnohrad, Ukraine, by Russian forces, marking the first such event since the Battle of Mariupol. The situation is described as a "military disaster" for Ukraine, with reports suggesting up to 2,000 Ukrainian soldiers are trapped.

Key Developments and Russian Strategy:

• Frontline Shift: The frontline situation on November 14th showed Pokrovsk under Russian control, with only a 2-kilometer gap remaining before Myrnohrad's encirclement. The primary supply road between Myrnohrad and Khristyshche was already under Russian fire control.
• Destruction of Ukrainian Vehicles: Russian drone footage revealed the destruction or abandonment of 77 Ukrainian vehicles across two key supply routes.
• Russian Tactics: Russian forces are reportedly not rushing to close the pocket, instead forcing Ukraine to commit more units to a "hopeless position." This strategy aims to "camp and their kill streak is just rising."
• Ukrainian Denial: Ukrainian media and some analysts are accused of being in "complete denial" about the severity of the situation, with some journalists ceasing to mention Myrnohrad in their reports.
• Russian Advance: Russian forces pushed out of Pokrovsk, with patrols spotted 2.5 km beyond the town, physically cutting off the supply road. This advance continued for 48 hours, with Ukrainian FPV drones attempting to halt the "tidal wave."
• Northeastern Push: Russian units broke through from the northeastern corner of Pokrovsk, advancing towards Myrnohrad and taking positions in warehouses. This secured a strategic area, eliminating any possibility of a Ukrainian withdrawal from the Myrnohrad pocket.
• "Stand and Fight" Doctrine: The Myrnohrad garrison appears to have been ordered to "stand his ground and fight until the end," a strategy compared to the German "Festung" doctrine of World War II, where strategically important cities were held at all costs.
• Russian Logistics Hub: Pokrovsk is being turned into a logistics hub for future offensives, with armored vehicles being camouflaged and hidden within the city.
• Drone Warfare: The video highlights Ukraine's advancements in drone warfare, including the use of FPV drones guided by bomber and reconnaissance drones, and long-range FPV drones capable of carrying significant explosive payloads.
• Surrenders and Casualties: Reports indicate surrenders of Ukrainian troops from the 38th and 101st brigades. Ukrainian sources also describe a "one-way trip" for relief efforts, with vehicles being destroyed on the "road of death" by enemy drones. Friendly fire incidents are also mentioned, leading to significant casualties during evacuation attempts.
• Composition of the Garrison: The Myrnohrad garrison is believed to be a mix of units, including elements of the 38th Marine Brigade, the 79th Air Assault Brigade, and the 25th Airborne Brigade. However, it's suggested these elite units might be filled with mobilized personnel.
• Final Encirclement: By November 25th, Russian forces linked up north of Rivne, officially completing the encirclement of Myrnohrad.
• Russian Objectives: Some Russian analysts suggest Moscow is deliberately slowing the assault on Myrnohrad to bleed Ukrainian reserves and create a large pocket for potential ceasefire or peace talks, similar to the Battle of Debaltseve in 2015.
• General Syrsky's Involvement: General Syrsky's past involvement in the chaotic withdrawal from Debaltseve is cited as a possible reason for the "stand and fight" order in Myrnohrad, aiming to pin down Russian forces and buy time for Ukraine to establish new defensive lines.
