A pretty nice pincer going on. Potentially vulnerable to artillery on the south-east bank of the Dnipro, though I suppose that has been largely taken care of. The aim seems to be to reach the Nova Kakhovka dam to interdict all Russian passage there.

The artillery on the SE bank is also vulnerable too though.

Issue for Russia (Duh) is there is no second line of defense once you break the first it's all open field. First line isn't that strong to begin with anymore from shelling and HiMARS.
I think the US messed up by not giving Ukraine all those AAV's that are in storage. It could have given Ukraine forces so much flexibility in their counter offensives.
Only THAAD and Aegis ashore are good. Pac couldn't even detect iranian drones.Western propoganda
We turn down the us offer of NASAMS, Patriot pac 3 & THAAD. Very bad decision
Yup! I remember that saudi arabia fiasco. LOL.
The Excuses Given were even more pathetic.
One of the Excuses was that it was looking in other direction.
I am Like WTH.
In my last post I wrote that anyone should discard Russia at their own peril and that end may just be the beginning. Guess what, I just found a article which states that:

Not the first time Zero Hedge publishes Russian propaganda.
But anyone serious knows that there's nothing to fear from Russia, since everything in this country is highly dysfunctional.
You see, in Russia, everyone lies, everyone steals, everyone cheats. It's how the system is built. If you don't lie, you are punished. If you don't steal, you are deprived. If you don't cheat, you fail. There's no such things as honesty or competence in Russia, there is only corruption and abuse. Why do you think Russians are famous for their fatalism? And their drunkenness? Those are just ways to cope with the rampant dysfunction of their society. If you don't cope, you kill yourself.

Russia Ranks 3rd in Suicide Rates Globally, UN Says - The Moscow Times
Russia has the world’s third-highest suicide rate, the World Health Organization said Monday in a global study published ahead of World Suicide Prevention Day.
My god David Petraeus probably went too far. No point in threatening Russia. Anyways i love the sweet smell of a weakening nuclear deterrence. The fact is Putin has backed himself into the corner. What he said is not what would have been said 7 months ago. Putin has *censored*ed his country.
Half of mobilised men in Russian region sent home, commissar fired - governor
Russia's first mobilisation since World War Two, declared by President Vladimir Putin on Sept. 21, has led to widespread discontent among officials and citizens over the way the draft has been handled, including complaints about enlistment officers sending call-up papers to clearly ineligible...
Only one got through and you don't even know that PAC was operating in that area. They had the element of surprise that time.
Big movement near Kupiansk.
Livemap has them just past Dudchany and that usually lags during rapid advances.
This is why Russia can't understand why it's losing, because anyone who tells them why is guilty of treason.
Guerre en Ukraine en direct :
Retired American general David Petraeus is back in the news. Speaking on ABC's "This Week," the former CIA boss opined that Vladimir Putin is in a bind: "The reality of the battlefield he faces is irreversible. No amount of haphazard mobilization - that's the only way to describe it - no amount of annexation, no amount of nuclear threats, however veiled, can get him out of this situation."The former general predicted that the U.S., along with NATO allies, would "eliminate [Russian] conventional forces [that they will] be able to see and identify on the battlefield in Ukraine and also in Crimea, as well as any ships in the Black Sea" if Russian President Vladimir Putin decided to use nuclear weapons in his war against neighboring Ukraine.
Petraeus recalled recent remarks by National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan that U.S. officials have warned Moscow of "catastrophic consequences" if the Kremlin deploys nuclear weapons. The radiation from a nuclear attack in Ukraine would likely reach neighboring NATO countries, making it an attack on the alliance.
