Russian Warning “Risk of Large Ukrainian Breakthrough”

  1. ‘ve been so wanting to read something like that ever since the conclusion of the Kharkiv offensive push.
    Great to see that Ukrainians are getting back some momentum.
    Slava Ukraini!

  2. Heard the replenishment rates are finally lower than the casualty rates. God willing, this will be a turning point.

    Kind of surprised you didn’t mention the whole fact that Russia doesn’t have access to Starlink anymore, considering how much of a benefit it is for Ukraine to be able to use it when Russia can’t.

    Russia has gotten away with constantly being on the attack for years leaving Ukraine on the defensive by throwing their reserves into the fight immediately and not keeping any people to defend against attacks.

    It’s been obvious that at some point the Russian army would become so degraded from this activity that it’d have to fall back to a more usual operating pattern where it holds reserves and dispatches them as required to counter attacks, while launching it’s own to force the Ukrainians to commit their reserves.

    I suspect that the breakdown in communications has suddenly encouraged Ukraine to do some counter attacks, and there are no reserves available to stop them. Which of course means that reserves have to be generated, except that means that they can’t keep Ukraine on the defensive which encourages more counter attacks.

    That’s likely to be hugely messy for the Russians and you’d think that they would lose a lot of ground but I don’t think it’s going to be a large breakthrough simply because that’d require a huge concentration of forces and at the moment there is probably more to be gained by striking in a lot of places to multiply Russian problems than in doing a single charge for Crimea for instance, which would run into the defences and minefields that the Russians dug in several years ago.

    Russians should just turn off their internet so they never find out about Ukrainian successes.

  6. This is the news I’ve been waiting for all these years.
    Show Putin that Ukrainians never give up.

  7. I wonder how. I heard him say mother-ships. So, maybe it is a mother-ship drone on fiber optics, and then the individual attack drones can go to work with their radio signals going through the mothership. One fiber, 100+km long, so a dozen kill drones can get anywhere as a group.

    It isn’t hard to overcome jamming when communicating over short range.

  8. Good. Let there be breakthroughs all across the front, all the way back to the border. And may the Kremlin not only be ejected fully, but collapse under its own hubris.

    I really hope so. I really hope it happens before Trump’s gift of oil money comes in
