Without getting too technical here about battlefield strategies what I see is Crimea being isolated from the Russian supply lines both on land, air, and water. There are about 100,000 Russian troops within Crimea that are suddenly vulnerable. Ukraine isn't using an overwhelming troop force to cut them off. Instead Ukraine is using it's multiapplication drone system and missiles to quarantine them. They have little chance at being supplied effectively and will soon find themselves squabbling over necessary basic resources. The kremlin will have to do something like move them out or stage some kind of offensive maneuvering to rebuff the Ukrainian strategy.
I don't see it as Ukraine has been pounding Russian rear guard military supplies and productions for months and the toll has been ominous. The Russian military is a caricature of their previous military thinking. Overwhelm their victims with huge troop engagements and wear their victims down. Well Ukraine is not living in the past. They have devised an electronic warfare that can engage the troops of Russia with very few troops. Drones that attack troops is the new battlefield strategy and Russia is not prepared to join in the development. Russia's might has been successful in the past but not anymore.
Ukraine has outsmarted Russia with technology. So as the Russian's find themselves unable to fight against other humans and instead must hide from munition dropping drones the tide has turned to favor Ukraine gaining it's territory back. What happens in Crimea is at a critical stage now. Crimea is literally under the fire control of Ukraine. Those 100,000 Russian troops are at a crossroads. Get out of Crimea or be eliminated by technology. I would never have guessed that Ukraine could threaten to retake Crimea back without troops fighting their way through. But even I am amazed at how Ukrainians keep outsmarting anyone who doubts their capacity to overcome no matter what the odds.
This blog will be an advocate for compassion, curiosity and human survival. When these elements of human nature are being denied, wholly, severally or individually, less than positive human traits are the outcome. It is my wish and hope that my reasonings on a variety of subjects will provide the readers of this blog with personal and public insights. My only motive is to provide a forum for advancing enlightenment. Carl Clark.
