Interesting photo of the SAM battery and article that summarizes a lot of real time reporting from yesterday.

"If Russia ends up routed and trapped against the river with no avenue of escape, the episode could rival historical tactical victories like the closing of the Falaise Pocket during World War II in which Allied forces trapped 50,000 Axis troops in August 1944. Mark Hertling, a retired U.S. Army three-star general and former commander of U.S. Army Europe said the Ukrainian Army has an opportunity to trap as many as 25,000 Russian troops to the north and west of the Dnipro."
