  1. The high ranking visit is a meaningful gesture to those fighting in difficult conditions, day and night. I wish I knew what the plans look like, regarding Bakhmut and the coming offensive. My guess is that Bakhmut and the other hotly contested areas are there to mow down cockroaches, weakening the mafia army.
    Anyway, I hope that the generals can do something to help the poor defenders there.
