Kherson counteoffensive has been canceled. Million man uber army has been put on standby until further notice.
"There will be no counteroffensive on Kherson yet," - Minister of Defense of Ukraine Reznikov
Ukrainian Defense Minister Reznikov denied his own words in an interview with the British The Times about the preparation of a counteroffensive in the south. Now, in an interview with the Ukrainian service of the BBC, Reznikov said:
"Let's just say, there was a bit of misunderstanding (misunderstanding), I was misunderstood. I didn't say that we are gathering a million-strong army for a counterattack on Kherson. Forgive my English, it's not my native language."
Earlier, Zelensky refused to comment on Reznikov's words about alleged plans to recapture Kherson.
1 of the HIMARS is apparently in russian hands already. Not sure if captured or just sold.

doesn't change the fact the people are there, the assymetry between Russian and Ukrainian cadres is ridiculous. Ukrs have 600k+ people rotating in and out of short spats of light combat to train them for 4 months now. Russians got, what, 230k people total? Russia is fighting the original force in the East, but isn't massing forces like Ukraine. Is Putin being deceived? Kind of looks like that to me, because even if Russia goes full retard, goes into war and drafts 2 mln people they won't have the needed momentum. It takes 6 months to really train up someone enough to be something more than an automated turret.

Lol.

Sounds like mega cope and cheap look-what-sticks propaganda drivel of the sort Kreml likes. HIMARS would be used at huger ranges.
Also check how many HIMARS Romania's getting. Number is not the issue, I think. Just the volume of American rockets pounding down on Russian logistics. If logistics collapse enough that artillery won't be getting shells for weeks on end Ukrs will in fact push their manpower advantage.

Did anything you guys sayd so far went according to the plan you belive it would?
Was it because Ghost of Kiev btfo all russian troops, or because we simply moved them to front they are actually useful?
You retards forget, that through this war, there is no record of single major battle Ukraine actually won. They didnt inflict the defeat on surrounding Kiev troops - they were btfo in every confrontation with them, most notably Hostomel.
We coudnt have occupied Kiev with the troops gathered here, but we sure could have destroyed it if wanted to.

>Did anything you guys sayd so far went according to the plan you belive it would? Yeah, a lot, you lost North. You're unable to win and idling while Ukraine is finishing to form up into a larger fighting force. Nothing changed from what I was saying besides Ukraine not using fresh recruits to slogfest it out. I didn't expect just their initial force to be able to hold so I thought things would come to a head sooner rather than later.
How are you going to win? You're Russians with numerical disadvantage. Like zerglings trying to rush a larger blob of stronger units. Only limit is what ukrops are willing to sacrifice while winning. You won't get an upper hand again unless the war drags on for 7+ years and by that time it'll be part of a word war.
Reznikov is of course jewish, so you'd understand. I mean, it's easier to name non-jews in Zelensky admin.

>You retards forget, that through this war, there is no record of single major battle Ukraine actually won. Almost every crucial point of this war was accompanied by armored divisions in the field from what I hear. You just don't get reports for it because you have a ring in your nose with a rope. Also giving ground because your supply lines are being destroyed is also losing. You can't fight without ammo, meaning you either flee or get slaughtered like cattle.

Our source in the Office of the President said that the General Staff was furious that the Minister of Defense revealed the tactical plans of the Armed Forces of Ukraine for the counteroffensive. After the debriefing at Bankovaya, Aleksey Reznikov said that he did not talk about the offensive to the south - he was misunderstood.
He said this in an interview with the Ukrainian service of the BBC.
Earlier, Reznikov, in an interview with The Times, speaking about the task of returning the south of Ukraine under the control of Kyiv, said that the president had ordered the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces to develop a plan.
"Let's just say, there was a bit of misunderstanding (misunderstanding). I didn't say that we are gathering a millionth army. Let them forgive my English, it's not my native language," he commented on this interview.

Well at least this is less retarded than announcing where and when your upcoming military operation is going to take place to the press at least.

This is the type of vermin being used to attack Ukraine.
It's really quite simple as a European which side I'm on.
It's different if you're a shitskin of course, you don't really feel the same kind of belonging.
Foregn mercenaries not going, some runing away, and Ukranian military is fractioned, iner fighting, selling our mercenaries and their locations, and all the weapons, now to Russia even given they cant move them as well out of Ukraine.
It's a mess! Still some traps, that's why Russia is taking it's time it appears. But these traps are no million man march, it's a bit different.
