Have you ever been stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic on the highway?

How about trying to find a parking spot at a sold out event?

That’s the exact position Russian troops are in as they follow orders to withdraw from Kherson. Oh wait…did I forget to mention the part about artillery shells and rocket fire?

The Russian retreat from Kherson presents Ukrainian forces with a huge opportunity; 2 major choke points being flooded by enemy troops…it’s not hard to picture what happens next. Other than immense casualties, we’ll see a huge swing in strategic opportunities and a massive transfer of equipment from the Russians to the Ukrainians.
