even Politico dropped a similar article yesterday addressing exactly that

"Ukraine’s Southern Operational Command has claimed to have liberated dozens of small towns and villages in the northern Kherson region. But they met little Russian resistance in those areas. Taking the rest of the territory will be much harder, a***ysts say"

It's why they're targeting bridges and infrastructure needed for Russian resupply

With those out the picture they can sit back and hit the Occupiers at a rate faster than they can recover, while drawing forces away from donbass

The battle for kherson is essentially a battle for freedom. The referendum will never be legitimate no matter how much some vegetables in here claim it is

Also their boy Volodymyr saldo is in a coma, let's hope he dies too

The economist, guardian and several other outlets have also published stories with this message

No operation is guaranteed to be successful (something the Russians learned in Kyiv). Its important to manage expectations

“Managing expectations”

NYT already broke down this overstated point

cuts to supply lines currently not effecting overwhelming advantage

Russia anticipated bridge attack and pre-moved equipment to fight longer for some time, plus military bridging, ferries, riverboats, etc.

Ukrainian lieutenant: Not enough heavy weapons to keep "sitting back and hitting" the Russians

Ukraine risks sapping military resources in Kherson and prevent itself from pursuing an advantage from Russia pulling resources from Donbass

NYT nuked the expectations you've been selling

Ukrainian Soldiers think this counteroffensive won't work, Ukrainian Military officials admitting they don't have enough resources for the attack, admittance of lies about Russian commanders moving their bases, Russian counters to supply attacks, etc.

If it doesn't work then it doesnt work. S*** happens. Not gonna make support for ukraine any less right

You have to be prepared for things to not go to plan

Those are some cocaine faces

I can fix her

i personally don't really care if she wants to party or not, i just think it's funny because it shows how little the job actually matters compared to actual important countries

Personally idc if she partying but the way yall deify “the west” like these people are on any other type of time than the “oligarchs” in Russia and have some sort of moral high ground is crazy. This would seem to throw some egg in that face

Dude been talking about kherson forever

Imagine erdogan watching that video tho

Emu when Boris Johnson:

Emu when Sanna Marin:

Imagine u at the club and u see the pm lmao

Ngl im shooting my shot

Wth

Talibani boys celebrating the 1 year anniversary of their victory against the imperial bourgeois west this week.
They bring peace and joy for everyone over there except women

Meanwhile in Afghanistan the government is partying every day and they hold no praise for me
