A rapid Russian advance into the strategic southern town of 35,000 people,
a gateway to a Ukrainian nuclear power station and pathway to attack Odessa
from the back, would have showcased the Russian military’s abilities and
severed Ukraine’s key communications lines.

Instead, the two-day battle of Voznesensk, details of which are only now
emerging, turned decisively against the Russians. Judging from the
destroyed and abandoned armor, Ukrainian forces, which comprised local
volunteers and the professional military, eliminated most of a Russian
battalion tactical group on March 2 and 3.
