“The Russians hope that with enough charges, enough soldiers over a few weeks can maybe gather into the bunker of a building—and when they get there, they start digging in really, really deep and try to build trenches,” Kirichenko added.

“Over time, once they have enough soldiers that aggregate in that area and they’re ready to assault the neighboring street, the Russians will launch glide bombs, launch artillery fire, everything that they have—and allow their soldiers to conduct these meat-grinder assaults, street by street.”
