    It would be weird to shoot down friendly helicopters and launch cruise missiles at friendly formations just to make a big feint.

    Ukraine just needs to take the land bridge to Crimea, I don’t see they have any incentive to go inwards towards Russia.

      Well, it would certainly be a massive moral blow to Russia if Ukraine just up and freed Crimea. The bigger challenge would be installing a leader that isn’t going to turn around and give the country back to Putin.

      Do we know for certain that any of that happened though? Because I haven’t seen any video of actual engagement between Wagner and Russia.

        Well, here’s some footage with a shot down C&C plane. I mean it still could be not Wagner, but it would be an awful coincidence.

        I mean we still don’t know shit beyond the fact that Ukraine is holding strong and slowly reclaiming territory. The thing about this story is that it shows that the Russians are divided, and that’s not a picture you want to show in a war, especially to your people. These events are costing the Russians dearly in one way or another.
