Harsh headline, but an interesting idea: Russia has redeployed its 76th Guards Air Assault Division to the Zaporizhzhia front to plug the Ukrainian breakthrough in Robotyne.

But this unit was until recently doing the same thing in Bakhmut.

Some indicators say the Ukrainian Eastern offensive near Bakhmut has ebbed in the last 2 weeks, which has theoretically freed up the 76th GAAD to be redeployed to the southern front.

Wasn't these the same guys who at the wars beginning, parachuted into the airport in Keiv, and got their asses handed to them by National Guardsmen?
