Drone footage of a recent engagement near Bakhmut shows a Ukrainian tank from the 93rd Mechanized Brigade attacking Russian troops that are inside of a Soviet style apartment complex.

I don't know what it is about the style of architecture seen in this video, but to me it has always just screamed that it would be seen in situations like this in the future. If we have any architects in the community, or anyone with an extreme interest in this subject, I'd love some resources to read up on in regards to this topic. It's always seemed so dystopian to me, but it's incredibly prevalent everywhere in former Soviet countries.
