Russia Ukraine war, page-3371

Russia will do what it did in Syria:
1) Encircle the city, cutting off resupply, except for a humanitarian corridor for civilians wishing to escape and Ukrainian disarmed military.
2) Conduct probing attacks to locate resistance.
3) Conduct weakening attacks to diminish resistance.
4) Conduct psychological operations.
5) When the food and water runs out, the defenders surrender.
6) Go in and mop up any die-hards and neo-Nazis. I suspect that is what the Chechens are for.
