During this time AFU attempted ground assaults in both the south and north part of Kherson region, with mixed results. Mostly unsuccessful. They did have some success in the northern part which proved to be the most difficult to supply for RuAF.

But even after a UA breakthrough of RU lines, RuAF managed to stop the AFU by sending reinforcements after just a few days.
At this point RuAF successfully restored GLOC over the NK dam with temporary bridges and I thin they could have stayed in Kherson the year out.

I also think they realized they would not be able to do any kind of offensives west of the Dnipro and deemed it too costly to try to keep it. They could instead withdraw their units, reconstitute their combat potential and use them elsewhere.

At this point in time, I'm leaning towards RU made a rational decision to withdraw over time from Kherson (they did so quite successfully) to continue their offensive during the winter and possibly gain the upper hand. I think this was a wise and important decision by RU.

RuAF have during and after the withdrawal from Kherson successfully trained their mobiks for around 3 months. integrated them in to their regular units (and created new ones). They have moved a lot of the assault units from Kherson to Bakhmut and Kreminna.

RuAF managed to capture Yakovlivka in early December after committing more resources to the area (VDV). At this point RuAF gradually started introducing more and more of the personnel which was mobilized in October.

@DefMon3:
It seems the AFU are managing to hold the defensive lines in and south of Bakhmut. What we need to keep an eye on is the area around Soledar and Yakovlivka. The most dangerous thing now would be if RU manages to isolate Soledar. https://t.co/TErdMXfpwG

After Yakovlivka was captured RuAF had the upper hand, the AFU had exhausted a lot of their combat potential during the fall offensive.

RuAF have gradually stepped up their efforts to attack Bakhmut since the fall Yakovlivka, and after the fall of Soledar they really stepped it up in late January.

What I believe we are seeing right now is kind of what we saw during the summer. UA are trying to reconstitute offensive potential while defending with "minimal" resources. That being said, those minimal resources are much greater now than during the summer.

I have expressed disagreement with the defense of Bakhmut. This is not because I think UA are doing the wrong thing over all, but rather I think they need to sacrifice more land for time and RU bodies rather than sacrificing UA soldiers.

I think we will see another month or so with RuAF having the upper hand. Possibly a bit slower May. But some time during June, I think we might see the AFU starting to operate more offensively.

Some time during the summer is also when most experts believe RuAF will start running in to some real issues with ammunition.

@VictorishB123 I think they are using some of what they saved for an offensive. Just like they used some units dedicated for a spring offensive.
