Ukraine. Military Summary And Analysis 29.04.2022
According to this presenter’s sources, roughly 1000 Ukrainian soldiers are surrounded and will likely surrender in time for the May 9th Russian victory day holiday.
That holiday celebrates the Russian victory over the nazis in WW2, so the optics of capturing 1000 soldiers would help with morale for the Russian people.
