Everything is a military engagement in war. People are now arguing about the destruction of power facilities but since they are dual use the civilians will have to suffer. Russia is working tirelessly to destroy rail lines, electric facilities and substantions. It is going to be cold not only in western Ukraine but Poland and Germany as well since they bought electricity from the Uke’s. Ukraine will have to decide how to care for her population and as such is not going to wage as many offensive operations once the power goes out.
“Everything is a military engagement in war.”
There’s been a progression in the perceptions and expectations of this war.
Initially 2-3 weeks and Kiev falls.
Then Russia’s air and missile attacks will destroy opposition.
Now?
Hitting civilian targets to hurt them for winter.
When this started no one would have predicted Russia would be at this point of low expectations and brutal tactics.
