Dude, give it up, even Putin knows things aren't going well, if he had a time machine he would go back to 24th Feb and not start the war, he only continues because he is trapped in his own silly decision.
Ukraine - Russia Conflict
- Thread starter randomradio
- Start date
Ukrainian populations seem very pleased to see Russian occupation troops ousted.
Even pro-Russian sources have to admit the tactical success of the Ukrainian offensive. For example, here's a couple of Russian milblogger Rybar's maps, showing the quick evolution of the situation today:
Note how the second shows Ukrainian forces have secured the Sen'kove bridge, are reaching the Horokhovatka bridge, and have reached the Kupyansk outskirts. I figure Ukraine will try to use the Oskil river as a natural border and will besiege Izyum and Kupyansk, while interdicting Russian reinforcement through the railroad. Kupyansk is an extremely important logistic hub, and Ukraine does not need to control the city so much as just keep its train station within its strike range.

That's Izium pretty much done by the looks of it. Ru army there have a choice of either leaving quickly or being captured.Ukrainian populations seem very pleased to see Russian occupation troops ousted.

It's looking like the whole 'Kherson Offensive' was just a ruse to pull Russian forces way from the area of actual interest. Face it, it makes no sense to tell an enemy where you're going to attack them, unless you think they're dumb enough to actually believe you.

Pathetic Russian air force. This Ukraine offensive would come to a complete stop if Russia sent up its air force but instead they just sit there once in a while SU-25's make rocket runs near their own lines.
Ukraine has better SEAD/DEAD capabilities at this point than the mighty Russian air force.
Oh boy.

Kherson offensive was always legit but it wasn't an offensive like everyone thinks. Kherson operation (from what it looks like now) is an operation to kill and degrade Russian forces north of the Derp River. They cut off Russian forces north of the Derp River from the south with weeks of bombarding bridges and ammo depots once that was accomplished their attack began.
Now Kharkiv offensive was not a sure thing. Ukraine was ready for it but it was up to the Russians if the attack was going to take place. Russians likely thought Ukraine didn't have the forces for such an attack or had too much confidence in their own forces to repel them. Wha a blunder either way.
I don't know really, it could be that Liveuamap is a long way behind but then, a lot of crap ends up on Twitter too. I hope so, but I'll have to confirmation before believing it. Great progress either way.
This is turning out to be a biblically stupid war for Putin.

The Kherson offensive is real, as you don't execute an effective diversion without committing some resources to it. It's true that some of the attacks wre repelled -- but on the Kherson front too, the Ukrainians were broadly successful. It's just that the collapse of the Russian forces near Izium has been spectacular.
Just look at that:
But yeah, progress has been harder in Kherson mostly because of how fast and easy it has been in Kharkiv. But make no mistake, progress has ben happening in Kherson too.
Offensive going on at Lyman, according to both pro-Russian and pro-Ukrainian sources:
