Strategy And Situation Report Of Ukraine: russian Invasion Day: 173 Poem by Gert Strydom

Russian forces are from the east still pushing
to Bakhmut city, are at the M03 road,
at a bridge the Ukraine are ambushing
the Russians will stop when the bridge explode.

By the H32 road they will probably try to go,
where they will have another bridge to cross
while the Ukraine does massive damage bestow
and at the rivers the Russians are at a loss.

Russia does not have enough troops to surround
Bakhmut or to drive the Ukrainians out,
are likely all its units to compound
where for these positions the Ukraine will scout,

while bringing in more of its reserves
to strengthened positions that they hold
where decimating strategy well serves,
while another slaughtering of Russians unfold.

To the south near the Donetsk Oblast
Russians have taken almost all of Pisky,
the Ukraine do Wagner mercenaries away blast,
the assault against strong positions is risky.

At Avdiivka and Marynka intense fighting rage,
more than five hundred Russians are dying on a day
while to the M03 road Russia lives wage,
from strengthened positions they are blown away.

Although Wagner has better equipment than most Russians
they are forced into the best defended positions by politics,
where each attack has severe repercussions
and they are seen as terrorists and lunatics

that do murder, torture, rob and also do rape,
where with significant losses they do not gain
and from a trial to them there is no escape,
while against them a strengthened defence remain.

At the Ukrainian Izyum counter-attack
although Dovhenke did to the Russians fall,
Barvinkove has been taken back,
where in this aria the Russians are at a stall.

Ukraine has both Melitopol and Nova Kakhovska hit,
with HIMARS do as usual the supplies destroy:
against command and ammunition Ukraine do commit.
Another strike against the bridge it should employ.

There are still Russian vehicles able to cross,
with cars and small trucks do supplies prolong.
crossing for tanks and artillery the Russians are at a lost,
for any pontoon-bridges the current is too strong.

From Kherson the Russian military command is fleeing,
are leaving by the Russian operated ferry,
while Novotroitske was hit by Grom-2 or something
in an aria where for attack the Russians were unwary.
