Azerbaycan has entered Lacin region
Latest Thread
Looks like Armenian forces are reinfoced enough to put counter attack, maybe its better for Azerbaijan to use its quantitative advantage and open more fronts to disperse the Armenian defenses.
I think that this area was cleared of Armenians. Armenias must have retreated into Kapan and Goris regions (of Armenia) and then mounted an attack from there. Some sort of hit and retreat which Azeris weren't anticipating. If they left the vehicles it means that they were probably targeted by ATGMs and ordered to abandon vehicles and move to safety.When did this happen tho? but seems legit..
just checked from liveumap, very recent clashes, near the Lachin corridor, which means that Lachin itself is very near.When did this happen tho? but seems legit..
They can dig in but for how long without resupply? And how will they do counter offensive if they don't have any air support, if anything they are pinned in from the air. The only thing that they can do is retreat imo, and in civilian clothes with no weapons would be best. If they dressed up as women, they would have better survival rate.just checked from liveumap, very recent clashes, near the Lachin corridor, which means that Lachin itself is very near.
I doubt if Azerbaijan captures Lachin , NKR troops station in Stepanakert will mount any counter offensive, they'll likely dug in for a prolonged urban warfare. while waiting for a counter attack from the west to open the roads from Lachin. consider that the troops in the Stepanakert area also have to face thrust
1. towards Xocavend and the roads leading directly towards Stepanakert.
2. toward Martakert and the roads leading to Agdam towards Stepanakert
I think they have another 3 days max to retreat , they know it well and if they don't, well that means that they're preparing for some prolonged urban warfare. I myself think they'll choose the later, considering the symbolical and propaganda value of Shusha and Stepanakert. just my guess tho.They can dig in but for how long without resupply?

And we have seen from previous conflicts that Turkish backed forces are very effective at clearing urban areas. The images of Tripoli, Northern Syria speak for themselves, as compared with US and Russian urban warfare which involves turning the town or city back to the stone age. We'll call it Hirosimarising.

Iran keeps carrying tanks and other heavy equipment up north near the Azerbaijan-Armenia-Iran border point.
Reports indicate 19 tanks in a single convoy. This is way more than just for patrol purposes.
Very disturbing.
The problem is if you look closely, there is a whole line of mountains 3000m+. So even Napoleon would have had difficulty here . There is little point wasting effort here. The area to the east of these pictures don't have the same topography, so that area has been taken.Indeed,it will be much difficult to oust the Armenians from north given the geography of the terrain,mountainous and covered with forests.
The Armenian and the so called Artsakh armies are well entrenched. Porgress will most likely be slow and costly in terms of human lives despite Azeri air superiority. Well,the Azeris are still far from liberating all those territories and taking Stepanakert/Xanqandi.
