1. I’m not as aware of the fine and minute details that others and experts may be aware of on the front, but I think now is as good a time as any for Ukrainian air force to begin implementing bombing runs to hold off the meatwave hordes.

2. This is sad man… I keep hearing that they have defensive lines setup in places but then Russian forces just flank them or bulldoze through them. So after they take Pokrovsk what la the next hope for Ukraine since that front is just gone…

   Wish they could take out the planes dropping those glide bombs or start hitting them back with the same thing.

3. Very sad the general for that front needs to be removed asap the only good news is that Ukraine can keep pushing up North and wipe out the backline

4. Syrskyi should be dismissed even before Pokrovsk falls. Clearly not suitable for this position. An example of the Peter principle.

5. The troops didn’t know they were going into Kursk until the last minute. Commanders maybe a day before. Listen guys, this shit happens. My guess is that these guys have been told to hold the line as best they can while tactically withdrawing when they must. That’s a blow to morale and you get these cracks that we’re seeing here. There is also an information war, and it may be that they are counting on this from Russia.

   I don’t pretend to know what the master plan is, but we’ve seen a lot of surprises from Ukraine over the years of this unnecessary genocidal war against them.

   I expect there will be more of those surprises, sooner rather than later.

6. Lines move. Did the Germans keep the ground they took? Did the Russians keep the ground they took? This all depends on numerous variables.

7. Could they be luring them into something much harder to run from? Maybe there’s a line of which Russia can’t protect in some way like less air protection? I’m obviously guessing.

   It would feel like a victory for Russia but then slam them hard in some way. Wipe out a huge amount of military and then reverse the progress.

8. Man, we have been so wrong about this whole thing. Russia zigs, Ukraine zags.

   We just need to give them weapons.

   I said it from the beginning and I still believe it. NATO should tell them 48 hours to get the hell out or their air power and missiles are going to work. Blow the fuck out the Crimean bridge etc…

9. …is it something what is just written here, where ruzzkies can also read it? Just one more push ruzzkies… with hulio putin at the front.
