The Potential Outcomes of Ukraine's Counteroffensive Against Russia.
TL;DR Summary
Ukraine's 80th Air Assault Brigade, along with other experienced units, have been holding the line in and around the city of Bakhmut with decades-old weaponry from Ukraine's Soviet-era stockpiles, buying time for high-tech weaponry promised by the West to arrive for the much-vaunted spring offensive. The battle for the city has lasted roughly 10 months, with devastating casualties on both sides, and it's become a symbol for both sides despite its relative strategic insignificance. The Russians have lost 100,000 troops since December, including some 20,000 dead.
