The Russians have almost no chance to escape from Izyum
About this Channel 24said military expert, instructor pilot and reserve colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Roman Svitan. According to him, there are practically no roads that they could use to avoid repeating the fate of their colleagues from the 237th airborne assault regiment of Russia.

In order for the troops to leave Izyum, they first need to cross the Seversky Donets, and then move through the Oskol reservoir towards the Lugansk region and advance to Russia,” Svitan explained.
He added that crossing such barriers would take a short time. time is practically impossible, so the grouping, which is located in Izyum and on the right bank towards Slavyansk, is actually doomed – it will be destroyed, because it simply will not have time to cross and leave.
“And the work on the so-called Izyum cauldron and the Balakleysky bridgehead will go on for several weeks with a complete sweep to the borders of the Oskol reservoir,” the military expert noted.
The Russians are unlikely to be able to get out of there. This can theoretically be done only through the southern part of the Oskol reservoir, but there is a very narrow lane of passage, which is shot through by our troops from the direction of Slavyansk. In addition, a bridgehead was also organized to the south of the Liman, where several villages have already been liberated, so the Armed Forces of Ukraine will “squeeze” the enemy from there as well.
