It’s clear that the “weapons” that Ukraine is being promised these days are more on the order of ammunition. I know their stock of HIMARS rockets are really low which is why they have been cutting back on using them. Russia intercepted 12 of them yesterday in the area of Nova Kakhovka, Kherson region
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFVYvhxUYqc (Military Summary Channel) Russia’s efforts have really picked up steam now that the pause is over and the regular Russian forces have returned and joined the DPR/LPR, and other groups (Walker, et al)
Huge increases in Ukrainian casualty rates. Weird story yesterday...Ukrainian forces are being eliminated by both sides...:-(
As a result of the offensive actions of the allied forces in the Kharkiv region , on August 14, 2022, units of the 58th motorized infantry brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were defeated in the area of the settlement of Udy. Under the onslaught of Russian troops, the remnants of the formation fled from their positions and left this settlement. To suppress panic and intimidate the personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the nationalists of the Kraken armed formation exponentially shot 100 servicemen of the 58th motorized infantry brigade who left their positions.
Between this and the upcoming aviation campaign and the new brigades being formed we are going to see a lot of activity over the next month.
“They simply don’t have it” - Arestovich, in an interview with Israel’s Best Radio, explained why Western countries have reduced the supply of weapons to Ukraine
According to Goebbels of Ukraine, the West simply does not have weapons to transfer to Kiev. Arestovich noted that Ukraine asked for ground artillery supplies, but the United States has very little artillery.
“We cried for this artillery. They would have given it, but they don’t. It’s the Americans, the European countries have a little better artillery, because they are not so good with aviation, but it is also all for recalculation,” he said .
While it hurts, particularly when going about it carefully, no one will have the experience and expertise that Russia is accumulating now.
Don't be surprised if Russia gets really good at modern, limited warfare.
