Examples

“Lastly, when it comes to the Bilohorivka tactical area, the main goal of the Russian forces is to establish control over the White Mountain and the hills behind the village.”

“The key point in the ongoing battle has become the White Mountain on the chalk quarry, after which the settlement of Bilohorivka was named. Ukrainian troops stationed atop the Terrikon [терикон] enjoy substantial tactical advantage because the high ground allows them to establish effective fire control over the surrounding area, significantly complicating Russian attempts to gain ground. That is why Russian forces decided to deal with it once and for all and launched a series of powerful assaults to capture the White Mountain.”
