To take revenge on Ilovaysk. The Russian 20th Army got into the surroundings under Liman
From Ukraine, according to the maps of the operational situation of the Russian channel Rybar (Russian propaganda channel), the Armed Forces achieved the full environment of the group of the 20th Army, which concentrated all the forces for the defense of the city of Lyman and Yampil village. The Russian leadership tried to keep two important cities of Donetsk region at any cost-Lyman and Yampil. The reasons are obviously political. However, the Russian Armed Forces could not stop the Armed Forces.
Ukrainian troops took under fire control the last route of supply of the surrounding-Kreminna-Lyman. And now the supply of the Russian group is cut. The defeat of the Russians in the boiler became inevitable, only on its scale. And it is very symbolic that it became apparent on the day that Russia is about to attach Donbas. Putin is going to join the words that he is not able to keep the weapon by force.
The last Soviet/Russian army entered the "boiler" in April 1945 during a German counterattack under Bauynce. During the war, since 2014, and 2022, the Ukrainian units have repeatedly entered the operational environment, and once got into the "boiler" near Ilovaysk. Then about 1,300 Ukrainian soldiers surrounded, 270 of our soldiers were killed in a break from the boiler. Now Ukrainians have a chance to take revenge.
At the same time, it should be noted that there is no reason to celebrate the victory in advance - we have received a historical chance for the war to punish the enemy, but this chance still has to be implemented. The prominent successes of the Armed Forces are surprised, because the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are still multiplied by our army in artillery, aviation, armored vehicles, ammunition.
To get the enemy and not allow you to jump out of the trap, there is still a lot of effort. Large losses in equipment and weapons to the Russians no longer avoided, but it is important not to let in jump out of the "boiler" surrounded. The complete elimination of the surrounding group, in addition to the information and political effect, will lead to a hole in the Russian front and will prevent the long-term maintenance of the Occupants of the border of the Svatove-Cremin.
