    UAF are making speedy progress in Kherson region.

    "Good lord, Russian front is apparently collapsing in the south.
    I just can’t keep up with reports on newly-liberated towns coming every other hour."

    A few more days and they may be in front of Kherson city.

    The psychological impact of the UAF success in the past week must be big on the Russians with morale going down even more and them getting whacked left and right.

    • Problem is this will make someones shaky finger move even closer to the big red nuke launch button.shapesalad
    • ^ To say nothing of the fact that there's no guarantee the UAF can actually sustain control over re-taken territory.Continuity
    • @Cont: Like I said before Russians can hardly even just stay in a position let alone counter-attack. Not saying they won't try in future. Izyum/ Kharkiv regionNBQ00
    • ...has been under UA control since weeks after liberating it and Russians have way other problems than attempting to attack again.NBQ00

    • We'll see. In case you've forgetten, reinforcements are coming, and even the most inept, amateurish, dysfunctional army can overrun defenders with sheer numbersContinuity
    • Ruzzkis had 150K of "pros" allocated beginning of war. 60K of those are dead and most likely 30K-40K+ wounded. Now come the amateur, drunks.NBQ00
    • Many of them don't even know how to handle or clean a weapon properly. They're just cannonfodder. But yes let's see.NBQ00
    • Be that as it may:
      • Don't underestimate the enemy or take him for granted
      • Take the threat seriously, and prepare accordingly      Continuity
    • 200k shitty soldiers can't do shit if they don't have something approaching a functional logistical chain supporting them.Nairn
    • And most of the reason Ukr's making so many gains recently is because it has hammered Russian's seemingly poor excuse for logistics.Nairn
    • All Ukr need to do is ensure that Russian Railways are too unsafe to rely upon. Russia's apparently paralysed without trains.Nairn
    • Even their primary nuclear centres up around Murmansk are served by a single railway line running south.Nairn
