Russia-Ukraine Flash Report 27 JUL 2022 13:45 PDT - Russians Using Human Shields In Kherson
Added 2022-07-27 20:33:07 +0000 UTCRussian forces have established a 'ferry" across the Dnipro to bypass the destroyed Antonovskiyy Bridge. The solution is using a pontoon bridge tug, towing four pontoon sections, and hugging the bridge to provide a defensive shield. Russian forces are also combining civilian and military traffic, using the local population as human shields to keep the ferry operating.
We do not make these types of accusations lightly or grab attention. There is nothing altruistic about combining military and civilian traffic together to create efficiency of scale.

Russia is basically behaving like a petulant child. I wish there was more depth to it or strategic planning, but after a few months I struggle to find any underlying meaningful strategy. It’s just people trying to cover their sorry, corrupt asses.
