Part 5/8:
With Russian forces having made notable territorial gains after the fall of Vadar, their sights are now set on the Suki Yali line, moving towards Uska. This strategic pivot aims to approach Uska from both the south and north via Dalna, aiming to capture this vital highway intersection and supply hub. Securing Uska would pressure Ukrainian forces in the surrounding areas, potentially forcing a withdrawal without significant resistance.
Recognizing a vulnerability in Russian positions—less defended trenches situated on elevated terrain overlooking key routes—Ukrainian forces have devised a counter-strategy. By occupying these advantageous positions, Ukrainian defenders can undermine the planned Russian offensive towards Uska.
