ATTACCO RUSSO FOLLE: 150 BICICLETTE, 300 UOMINI, NESSUN SOPRAVVISSUTO!

In one of the most bizarre offensives of the war, Russian forces launched a large-scale assault near Pokrovsk—led not by tanks, but by over one hundred fifty motorcycles. Their objective was to retake a strategic highway intersection on Pokrovsk’s eastern flank, recently lost to Ukrainian forces. However, the operation quickly unraveled after Ukrainian drones spotted the buildup and launched a devastating preemptive strike. What followed was a complete breakdown of coordination, as the assault force was decimated mid-advance, leaving the fields strewn with burning bikes, destroyed armored vehicles, and scattered infantry. As Russian commanders scramble to recover, the failed offensive highlights the growing disparity in battlefield awareness and tactical execution between the two sides.
