“The General Staff continues to accumulate reserves on the Southern Front, at the moment the Armed Forces of Ukraine have assembled a group of 60 thousand, of which half is in Nikolaev and is preparing to strike at Kherson.
The Biden administration is urging Zelensky to storm Kherson in order to retake the city before the ๐ฆ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐น๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป and allow the ๐๐ฒ๐บ๐ผ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ to use this victory as a symbol.

Bring those fresh Ukrainian troops down for the meat grinder fight...
“THE RESERVES THE UKRAINIAN ARMED FORCES HAS RUSHED TO BAKHMUT TURNED OUT TO BE SO FRESH THAT THEY HAD TO BE TRAINED โON THE FLY.โ An improvised base and firing range was set up at a fishing pier near Stake 8 (in the village of Khromovo), on the south-western outskirts of Artemovsk.

Zelensky will strike when the time is right not because it is politically advantageous for Old Man Joe.
