Ukrainian forces have recaptured the village of Dniproenerhiia in Donetsk Oblast’s Volnovakha district and advanced in two key front-line sectors in the past two months, Lieutenant General Serhii Naiev, commander of the Vuhledar tactical group, reported on April 15.

“I have been in command of the tactical group for two months. During this period, we managed to reduce personnel losses by 20%, regain control of the village of Dniproenerhiia, and improve the tactical situation in two critical areas,” Naiev wrote on Telegram.

    The real question is “we managed to reduce personnel losses by 20%, regain control of the village of Dniproenerhiia, and improve the tactical situation in two critical areas” because he is a better commander than the previous ones, or did Russia decide to de prioritize that area and so any idiot could have done the same. I have no idea, but it is always the question to ask.

      This is a really bad take and makes you sound like you think you’re a qualified battle commander, and I don’t think that was your intent.

        I agree, specially on the ‘not intent’ part. Wording is not the best, but the underlaying question is still valid. However on the article the same lieutenant says that Russia is ramping up operations, so maybe (hopefully?) he or Ukrainian army in general are just getting better on what they do.

        Either way, good news. And there’s plenty more promising news from the front, I really hope that Ukraine can keep it up and that Europe can get their head out of their ass and start actually producing ammunition and other gear for them instead of just endless negotiations.

        And maybe, when all of this is over, Russia has collapsed under it’s own madness and future generations in Ukraine will prosper in peace.
