Zolote is South of Severodonetsk. Is this the start of the next encirclement of the orc army?
Zolote is situated right on the line of contact during the Donbass War, Foccusser. It’s a collection of villages that grew together, and parts are controlled by Ukraine and parts by the orcs. This is a heavily fortified area, since it’s been fought over for years. It’s anyone’s guess what’s going on there. A frontal assault should prove to be quite difficult.
Could be another distraction then. The orcs seem to fall for this trick every time. I would think the next realistic targets would be Svatove, then Starobilsk, to completely cut the orc supply lines to the occupied parts of Donetsk and Lugansk.
Would be good moves, if it’s militarily possible. The UA general staff will be better informed about this than us.
Looks like it to me too,
Yeah and the orcs. 😂
