(3,388 posts)It is Putin who is more likely to destroy the bridge in order to force Russians to remain there.
I completely agree with your scenario. Zelenskyy will continue to make life unbearable for the Russians that remain in Crimea. And once most are gone, they will be able to get in close to set big explosives that will take out a bunch of the piers, ending that chapter. I predict that will happen within 4 months.
Surely there are few supplies moving through Crimea now. As this progresses, that will allow Ukraine to concentrate more assets on the supply lines along the west bank of the Sea of Azov. This becomes a phase of war where Ukraine doesn't have to engage the enemy in close combat so much. THey can basically get the russians out by attrition.
