Here is a recent update by Dima at the ‘MILITARY SUMMARY’ channel. He routinely presents a pretty accurate situation assessment. Of course some ardent pro-Ukrainians claim he must be pro-Russian because he reports positive news when it favors the Russians. Of course he also reports on good news for the Ukrainians when that happens.
This recent Ukrainian river crossing is in a a state of flux so following developments is the best way to understand the military situation there and NOT RELY ON “SNAP SHOT” reporting of the situation at a single moment in time. Just IMHO, of course.

Any other sources verify this ? The river looks deep and wide at that point. I suppose Special Forces could breach enough soldiers over several nights, but still .... looks like a tough way to fight ... I’ll wait for more confirmation
Thanks !
From this link, pics of two POWs, three helmets, and five small arms weapons. The Ukie officially won’t say the operation is over, or continuing. So, it’s too soon to say if it was only a rain, or if it is the start of larger operation across the Dnieper.
Basic commie tactics. Everyone who opposes them is a nazi or a fascist, because there is nothing else they can call them that wouldn’t be a compliment in comparison to the commies themselves.
You’re against everyone.
“The Reagan Institute Summer Survey, which polled 1,254 people online and over the phone in late May and early June, found that 76% of respondents felt a Ukrainian victory was important to the United States.
That belief was held most strongly by Democratic respondents, 86% of whom agreed that a Ukrainian victory was important, and least strongly by Independents, 58% of whom agreed. Among Republicans, 71% of all respondents agreed with that statement”
The Nazis would not have a Jewish president.
I’m glad we cleared up which side you are on.
Before one gets flamed, One thinks the whole damn thing is stupid and the result of an absence of diplomacy from the west.
Young conscripts on both sides being massacred and will never go home to their moms or their girlfriends, for what?
GloboHomo and money laundering.
Not long ago one heard one’s Senior US Senator doing a sound byte, being axed about our support for Ukraine and the risk of war with Russia, and he waxed all in favor of it. Something about the price of soybeans, after all. Can’t have the Rooskies cashing in on that.

Update on the conflict in Ukraine for August 9, 2023:
- Western analysts and media sources are beginning to admit the poor progress, heavy losses, and fundamental flaws of the Ukrainian offensive and beyond that, the unsustainable nature of the proxy war in the first place;
- Ukraine is shifting away from attempts to storm Russian lines and attempting instead to conduct attritional warfare, however, it lacks the material resources to do so which necessitated “storming” tactics in the first place;
- As Ukraine’s offensive falters on the battlefield, Kiev and its Western sponsors have been focusing on aerial and naval drone strikes to create the illusion Ukraine maintains the initiative;
- Quantities of artillery, armor, and trained manpower determine the duration of Ukraine’s offensive. The disposition of both Ukrainian and Russian forces including the reserves of both sides will determine if a breakthrough will occur;
- Russian military industrial capacity and the material resources it produces for the ongoing military operation ensures that no matter where Ukraine’s offensive ends on the battlefield, it will leave Ukrainian forces exhausted, depleted, and unable to sustain their fighting capacity;
- Industrial capability between the collective West and both Russia and China is and will remain into the foreseeable future leaning in favor of Russia and China;
- The West gambled and lost on “small wars” as it enters an end game for geopolitical unipolarity against Russia and China and the reality that modern warfare against peer and near-peer competitors requires industrial capacity the West doesn’t have and cannot obtain;
Yes they would. That way their propagandists can cover for them by saying, “The Nazis would not have a Jewish President.”
You could be a paid shill for Moscow.
From the reports, the Ukies are still in the taller buildings in Western part of Kozachi Laheri and beyond. Their bridgehead across the Dnieper is expanding slowly. Russia can’t throw them back. This is very good news.
