That’s a deep penetration near Robotyne. Ukrainian forces have completely broken the preliminary line. They have broached the anti-armor ditches and dragon’s teeth protecting the main Surovikin trenches. They have opened a breach wide enough to allow the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) to bring tanks and MRAPS forward to engage the Russian’s main trench line.
Once an army punches a hole in a defensive line, they spread out in all directions and attack the adjacent parts of the line from their unprotected rear. The enemy forces are threatened with encirclement. Often this collapses large segments of the defensive positions. This might be happening northeast of Tokmak now, as in this week, or today. Denys Davidov posts on his Telegram channel:

“From the Ruzzian channels:
“ ‘There is a sharp escalation of the situation on the Zaporozhye front: Ukrainian troops have gone on the offensive,” Vladimir Rogov, a member of the main council of the Ruzzian administration of the region.
“ ‘After a massive artillery barrage, the Armed Forces of Ukraine launched an assault on our positions in the Rabotino-Verbovoe sector of the Orekhovsky direction of the Zaporozhye Front,’ he added.”
“Could be interesting🧐 Maybe Ukraine wants to break the front line with one major push…”
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Only time will tell. Culmination, stalemate and victory are all possibilities. I’d add a User Poll, but we all know that the DKOS community wants Ukraine to win, and that colors our expectations.
P. S. I’m not a captain of anything except useless and sometimes wrong facts.
