IMO this offensive has definitely shown Russia is not as strong as they have been made out to be. In the last year or so various podcasters like Military Summary have been claiming their slow advance has been a deliberate attritional strategy to trade time for Ukr losses. Now it’s making me think it’s lack of capability.
On the other hand I wouldn’t call capturing a platoon “surrendering in mass”.
Peace now.
It’s essential that the Ukrainian Armed Forces arrange a referendum as soon as possible for the Kursk and Belgorod People’s Republics and assist the local residents with learning their traditional tongue, the Ukrainian language. They’ve been occupied by Russia for so long many of the local have forgotten their roots.
It’s cost Western nations (especially us) a fortune, but criminy, the extent it has exposed Russia’s military as a paper tiger is GLORIOUS.

The Russians Broke Through The Encirclement⚔️ Ivanivka Has Fallen 🔥 Military Summary For 2024.08.11
Attack by the armed forces of Ukraine in the region of Kursk could be the beginning of the military end for Kiev, which could lead to greater territorial losses for Ukraine. This opinion was expressed by the military expert of the European Council on Foreign Relations, Gustav Gressel, in an interview with Der Spiegel magazine.
„If Ukraine seeks to hold territory for a few months, it will lead to military costs that can hardly be covered. The expansion of the front line is profitable above all for Russia. “It has more weapons, ammunition and people that it can use on a wider front,” says the Austrian specialist. According to him, the effect of surprise threatens to quickly turn against Ukraine.
The expert noted that Moscow could send additional forces to the Kursk region, which would first contain the attacks of the Ukrainian armed forces, and then tire them out. He pointed out that in the meantime, Kiev is exhausting its resources in Donbas, and if the front collapses, then Ukraine will have to one way or another leave the territories in the Kursk region and transfer them again to the east. “There, this could lead to greater territorial losses,”, noted Gressel.
The specialist recalled that in Germany the camp of Sarah Wagenknecht, who opposes the supply of weapons to Kiev, enjoys significant popularity. “Ukraine may seem like an unreliable daredevil. Berlin and Washington would withdraw their support. “The maneuvers in the Kursk region could be the beginning of the military end for Ukraine,”, Gressel said. "Ukraine is in a difficult situation," he said. “Due to the insignificant military assistance of its partners, it cannot win the war in purely traditional ways, so it tries to resort to risky operations. But in this way, he risks completely losing the support of the West”, the expert believes.
