The rolling thunder of Kiev’s artillery attacks has grown more distant each day since the Debaltsevo pocket was “neutralized”. The cauldron that never was might go down as the last nail in the current Kiev government’s coffin.

This defeat followed closely behind the devastating loss of the Ukies’ armored brigade, which was wiped out in a two-day attack on the Donetsk airport. The militia defenders were well prepared for it, and took care of business when it came. Poroshenko doubled down on his denial bet on Debaltsevo not being another such disaster, but it was worse.

His denial of his troops being surrounded there gave the Republics legal cover to continue operations to “disarm or neutralize illegally armed groups” in their territory, per the Minsk2 agreement. Here is what happened.

I have the video of the Republic militias cutting the MO3 highway north to Artemyevsk. A militia company had advanced on Logvinovo, the first settlement north of Debaltsevo, during the night and attacked it without artillery covering fire in the morning. Using light weapons and RPGs, the Ukie post was so quickly overrun that it did not send out a warning it was being attacked and overrun.

This was soon proven by the staff car coming south down the highway that got shot to pieces with two Ukrainian army colonels inside, one of them carrying orders that he was the new deputy commander of Debaltsevo. I watched the one as he was dying, and with it Poroshenko’s claim to military fame.

The militias had closed the pocket prior to the Minsk2 meeting and Poroshenko soon knew it. The deaths of these two colonels were to be followed by many more Ukies. In a futile and desperate attempt to hide the disaster, Poroshenko spun a fairy tale of an organized withdrawal, which of course left abandoned units all over the pocket.

Why he thought he had any chance of maintaining this illusion for more than a day or two is beyond me. The dead don’t speak, but their bodies can be counted. But let me cover the combat tactical situation more fully before the sad ending.
