Back in my day, artillery was referred to as the king of n battle... It's the category of weapon that has killed the most people since its inception, and to dominate in terms of artillery is to have control over the battlefield.

Everywhere the Ukrainians gather, they are ultimately under a sort of siege. They become targets that have no choice but to move quickly or break ranks. They can't actually sit in positions and hold them for the long term without taking immense casualties.

It's foolish to fight in these conditions. It's a waste of lives.

Get to the negotiating table and stop making poor Ukrainians go die pointless deaths.
