Russian troops outnumber Ukrainians 4 to one on Dnipro battlefront, soldier says: ‘The situation is deplorable’

1. “At least” 4 to 1. I don’t think even in Mariupol they were so outnumbered, and that’s including the no-training DNR conscripts of early 2022.

2. Ukraine has been losing lots of ground lately. I would believe it.

3. 4 to 1 in favor of the aggressors is the ratio imbalance where impacts generally start being made… it’s actually 3 to 1, but 4 to 1 is obviously preferable

4. The whole river crossing was a pr move from the start, it had no real tactical or strategic significance, and only is serving to attrit Ukrainian soldiers and materiel, with the only real achievement being of damaging the ruzzian garrison in the region. These soldiers are needed elsewhere in the front defending trenches and strongpoints, not being exploded in boats just because some officer wants to have boots in the left bank of the Dnipro. The time for the crossing is not now, and especially not when they did it.

5. Isn’t the whole point in Dnipro assaults to divert critical resources from other areas of the line?

6. “Deplorable”? What would the long lines of charred Russian armor be classified as then? This is war. Much of the western media portrayals don’t understand a Pyrrhic victory. One can only assume these are smear pieces attempting to undermine morale of soldiers and their western backers.

7. uhoh, does that mean ruzzia is weak somewhere else on the front, usually when we get stuff like this something wild is about to happen, yippee
