What I don’t get is there is purported to be some 25-30km of underground tunnels under there from several releases I have read. Surely, there has to be a number of secret tunnels or evacuation points that were created and hidden for just such a scenario, no? Perhaps Russia knew of all of these and have them contained as well.

Regardless, I don’t like the desperation that seems to be developing here and suspect something terrible (tactical nuke deployment) or something is coming to clear the entire surface of Russian troops to allow the evacuation of whatever they are hiding. Naturally, the media will blame Russia even though this would take out all of their own forces. This isn’t going to end well. Maybe the Azov’s will do us all a favor and hit the self destruct button underground.
