I understand fit German women, ages 23-27, who are looking for warmth this winter have been guaranteed Russian gas flows complete with a thermostat.

Without any serviceable bridges across the Dnieper, or the Inhulets, Ukraine reclaiming the west bank around Kherson is expected. Getting to the other side around Nova Kakhovka is much more problematic.

Putin screwed up big time.

With all of the bridges gone, his troops have been bisected by the Inhulets and are trapped.

His best troops in the region are cutoff west of the river.

His worst troops are cutoff east of the river.

The Ukrainian breakthrough last night to the east of the river against Putin’s worst troops is why the Russian leadership and their Ukrainian collaborators are evacuating Nova Kakhovka and retreating to Crimea in a panic.

“Long anticipated southern offensive” sounds like it could be part of our daily civil war thread. LOL

Russian occupiers bugging out today from Tomaryne, just north of Nova Kakhovka in Kherson region. They'll need a swim ring to cross the Dnieper since Putin's Chechens are on the other side of the bridge with orders to shoot to kill any retreating troops.

I expect it is going to get debunked tomorrow, but the resident neocon clowns are going to jump on any other news like this like dogs on bones for the time being. Everybody questioning their stories is a Kremlin troll, of course, no matter how often they proved to be lies.

I’ll just add on what I’ve seen floating around this morning, there are scattered reports that in Kherson Oblast, the DPR’s 109th MRR was abandoned by their attached Russian VDV unit, forcing a retreat.

Putin was stupid to send DPR conscripts to defend the eastern Kherson region. They don’t know how to fight.
