Another senior Ukrainian official said the leaked documents were unlikely to compromise the planned counteroffensive. “Everyone knows we’re low on ammunition — the president and the defense minister talk about that openly,” the official said. “And it’s been obvious to everyone since November that the next counteroffensive will be focused on the south, first Melitopol and then Berdyansk. But the exact place — we can change that the week before.”

It’s the Clown Counteroffensive.

There’s two take aways from this war. Russia is a third rate military power and Ukraine is no better despite support from the U.S.

Hopefully it’s all misdirection. But I would not count on it. Biden and his woke admin are gloriously incompetent.

That is something to be relied upon.

How much do you wanna bet, Marky?
It's the last stand for NATO in Ukraine.
And, we know all about your track record and the Biden regime and British's in this war. It's consistently wrong.

If the Western media were consistently wrong then we would not be discussing a future Ukrainian offensive, 14 months after Russia invaded.

I guess this means the United States is a fourth rate military power.

NO! The Ukrainian Army of Freedom will push back the Orks to recapture Marapol and cut the land link to Crimea. The Ruzzian Army will be crushed with the new drive, new army of the Ukraine and their new tanks and other system. Watch as the new Weapons shatter the enemies of Freedom and Democracy! The tide is turning. The Balkmut trap has killed Putin’s best fighters. He has nothing left. He will be powerless to stop the fall of Crimea—when it goes, he will be forced out of power and Russia surrenders to NATO. The war will be over with a Zelenskyy victory. This will be one for the history books!

February 2022, two months after the Afghanistan debacle, was a good time for Russia to resolve its eight-year conflict with Ukraine.

Alternative take away
Ukraine— a minor military power— stopped and repelled one of the top three military powers in the world.
US help was probably critical to that result
Especially president trump giving lethal aid such as javelins instead of non lethal aid like bidenobama.

Armor without air support wont do the job. The new tanks on line this summer need much more air support. Plus Ukraine has lost some of their best soldiers so far and the untested reserves will be going against entrenched Russian forces with massive fire power.
And the massing of Ukr forces will be very visible to the Russians so they will have plenty of time to counter it.
