This is likely a report from people connected to western Intelligence. Don't completely trust it, and I've heard Ukraine killed their prisoners in Avdeevka before they retreated but it is an interesting suggestion. It suggests Avdeevka was the most Chaotic "retreat" that occurred and Avdeevka was more of a route than anything.
Surround a city with enough men and fortification to prevent the Ukrainians from being able to leave the city. This might seem like it requires a lot of men but if you can build strong enough fortifications it wouldn't. You can let food enter the city normally and other wise do nothing. You can just hold up the Ukrainian soldiers and ignore the city.
This also means you might get Ukraine to surrender without taking every major city which would be good because Russia wouldn't have to rebuilt them quite as much. As it currently stands Russia has to destroy every city they currently take.
The city density really does decrease quite a bit once you get out of the South and the Donbas making this at least theoretically possible.
Are you sure it is not the Middle Ages? Putin does have a very medieval relationship with Kadyrov. No I'm just joking but I should clarify what I meant. I didn't elaborate because that post was long enough.This isn’t the Middle Ages, you can’t just starve troops out of a city like that. They have guns, the civilians all have to starve first before the soldiers run out of food, and that’s just not the Russian way.

Eh people cry out for mercy when they die. I will not deny them that. Russian soldiers should kill the Mercenaries/Nationalist_Battalion members they find because the MoD will just trade them and do nothing to them if they don't. But I will not deny people the ability to cry out as they die.Look, I get its a tense situation but good Lord at least have the dignity to go out like a man.
