Day 477 of Putin’s special military operation.
Activity everywhere,
One objective at a time is the correct strategy. Concentration of forces, especially against a larger force.
Day 477 for some Ukraine commanders who remain in either a habit, or purposefully, from time to time, “hand over” armor to the Russians, by using “flying armor columns” . . . or, as the Russians refer to such bungling: “armor herds.”
The lesson, that the spear must be accompanied by support, while also that spear must work in company of flanking and some kind of air support . . . is talked about, but the Ukrainian soviet-method commanders remain.
Somewhat related, considering support, I just watched another video of Ukraine troops assaulting Russian-held trenchworks. The Ukraine troops did not have a mortar (60mm would do), nor an SPG-9 recoilless, and a grenade launcher was not apparent.

Kherson Update, One of my guys in the hospital, another, Marek was 400m away at the time and survived the blast, this is by far the most angry I have been since the beginning of the invasion.Russians posted this boasting about killing those rescuing dogs/cats & people.
In this country I am now watching neighbors that were waving little blue and yellow flags in 2022 deciding they were lied to and have had enough of Ukraine.
They were led to believe it was all going to be over a long time ago. In the meantime, they are seeing the destruction of America happening and are now totally done with US support of this.
Most do not understand it is a proxy war, but they are done with it.
