Broke through the FIRST line. Russkies have defenses in depth.

The first line here is the river. This is just another bridgehead, and a better one that at Antonivka.

Nah, the Ukrainians have been contained around Oleshky for a month or so now, and the Russians really haven’t bothered with them as this is all infantry and armored vehicle movement is impossible there.

True. The Moskva is defending the bottom of the Black Sea at a depth of about fifty meters.

DOESN’T look like the rear lines are even manned. They are just fall back positions.

Not there, there is only one line of defense west of the village along the river bank, and it was abandoned or face encirclement. There are some small road block defense lines a dozen km away, but nothing major like in the south.

Next major line of defense is Armiansk, Crimea.
