I have heard good things about the Ukraine’s “Great Summer Offensive” so will you please list its accomplishments? With you being so knowledgeable and all I am certain that it would be enlightening.

Results were disappointing.
But did you also hear about the two great Russian offensives of 2023?

  1. The Russian Spring Offensive against the Bakhmut area.
    Conducted by the old Wagner group this Russian offensive was successful in gaining a few square miles of Ukrainian territory at the cost of around 60,000 Russian casualties.

  2. The Russian Fall Offensive against the Avdiivka area.
    Ongoing since September, Russians have gained a few square miles of Ukrainian territory circling Avdiivka, at the cost of nearly 1,000 casualties per day lost in "Meat Wave" assaults on Ukrainian positions.

So, while Ukrainians failed to get massive numbers of their own soldiers killed in Ukraine's Summer Offensive, Russians were highly successful in losing over 100,000 of their own troops in "Meat Wave" assaults during Russia's Spring and Fall Offensives.
