Yeah, that fortifications are more or less for keeping people busy and boosting their morale

Meanwhile, my not very reliable sources say that probing attack on Mariupol is started.  Typical Russian tactic to gather intelligence data and then use artillery

As for taking Mariupol with small assault teams... I don't mind if Russian will do just that and send its soldiers to die, but I expect very heavy shelling, it is the only realistic way to capture the city.

The other way is to siege the city, kill all communications with outside and wait until they're out of food.

Modern cities aren't exactly self-sustainable...

one problem with that

the rebels didn't exactly "capture" any ships of the ukrainian navy yet

i wonder how they would play that, it's easy to just grab an old apc and toss it at people but ships are sorta unique

That's the tactics preferred by the Ukrainian forces in this war. Cut all communications, destroy the water supply and power plants with artillery, wait.

It really looks like there will be some ceasefire soon. Now it's probably the highest chance of that happening.

Not sure what you mean by that? Like someone setting fire to something?

Tired of Poroshenko's ceasefires and peace plans. They result in too many deaths

What, regretting electing a billionaire as a president already? Who would have thought a simple successful businessman would have problems with waging war?
