This is an important point. Melitopol is an even more critical rail hub now that Russia will likely have to rely on ferries to move equipment to Crimea. It possibly makes a Ukrainian offensive in Zaporizhzhia more likely (though I expect they've already been planning one). twitter.com/WarintheFuture…

5/ Either way, it presents the Russians with a significant problem. It doesn’t stop resupply to Crimea (there are boats and the route through Melitopol), but it makes holding Melitopol even more important for the Russians. (Image: @TheStudyofWar) https://t.co/zaBVDvtcUy
