Big strike with what? Half of the force intended to hit towards Melitopol is wiped out. The units of second echelon that were supposed to exploit the breaches in the defences are now put into fight where not even the first line penetrated.
‘Bridgehead’ in Kherson is a PR trick and a waste of troops. There are no forces concentrated to exploit it.
What else? Is it a new provocation on Russian border? A nuclear plant incident?
Heard are bringing in some EU “peace keepers or minder types”. May or may not be true. Obviously Kramatorsk exposed some truth.
Escalation? Likely.

Ukrainian troops continue their fight against the Russians. The Ukrainian troops, who liberated Novodanylivka and Makarivka regions from the Russians, focused on the supply lines and attacked the determined regions in order to prevent the Russians from sending support to this region and to slow down the Russians. Ukraine’s aggressive attack strategy scared the Russians. For this reason, the Russians In order to keep the Ukrainians away from important logistics centres and ammunition depots and to move ammunition from this area to other areas, the Russians tried to divert the Ukrainian army’s attention to other areas.
The Russians succeeded in directing the Ukrainians to that area with a comprehensive offensive in the direction of Makarivka. The strong tactical attacks of the Ukrainian army put the Russian army in a difficult situation. The Russians are forced to retreat before they can respond to Ukrainian attacks.
What do you think is the main reason for Ukraine’s success at the front? Before the Russians could continue their attack in the direction of Makarivka, they lost control due to the tactical superiority of the Ukrainian army. The Ukrainians controlled the hills close to the settlement, so the Ukrainian army quickly gained control of the area. The Russian defence in the area was also considerably weakened. The Ukrainian army took this opportunity to attack the weakened Russian defences and tried to completely neutralise the Russian positions.
It was confirmed that the 31st Mechanised Brigade of the Ukrainian army gained full control in the Rivnopil region. Russian troops could not withstand the intense Ukrainian offensive and wanted to retreat quickly. Part of the Russian troops retreated and moved away from the area. Some of the Russian troops were caught and killed by the Ukrainian army’s intensive artillery attack on the retreat routes. With Ukraine’s intense attacks and tactical superiority in the region, the Russian army withdrew from the region.
Although Russian leader Vladimir Putin prevents the spread of such news in Russia, people can be informed about the events on the front line through social media. Russia’s losses at the front are very disturbing to the Russian people. For this reason, many Russians react to Vladimir Putin. In the coup attempt initiated by Wagner leader Prigozhin, we saw many Russian citizens supporting the rebel Wagner troops in the Rostov region. Reactions to Putin, who said that he would invade Ukraine by reaching Kiev in 1 week, continue to increase. The number of military personnel lost by Russia against Ukraine is more than 200,000. This situation has brought the war to the point of completely ending Putin’s reputation.
