Xenogears15 posted... I love Ukrainian success, but...I'm casting extreme doubt on those numbers. Yeah, those numbers seem...embellished, to say the least. If there were that many Russian casualties already that means the Ukrainians are mopping the floor with their main defenses. They're still 10s of kilometers away from the main defenses in areas with the most movement though. https://twitter.com/randymot4/status/1668881740352352258 If they were inflicting casualties like that where they are close to the main defenses (like south of Lobkove) I feel like there would be some kind of major breakthrough in that area.

The Ukrainians have now resumed the process of clearing the northern Russian flank around Bakhmut. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhJamnwakv0 They're really keeping the Russians guessing where they're going to strike next and we haven't even seen the big mechanized assaults yet that we saw in Kharkiv and Kherson, but it looks like the Ukrainians are still shaping the battlefield at this stage of the counteroffensive; probing defenses, destroying concentrations of supplies and personnel, eliminating grey zones between them and the Russian defenses, things like that. They're doing all this along the entire front so the Russians are forced to spread themselves thin to defend all the areas under attack while the Ukrainians are more than capable of deploying their reserves strategically across the entire frontline. --- Fight - You will win!
