Rybar and WarGonzo both reporting Ukrainian gains in the Zaporizhzhia front heading towards Tokmak. I dont feel like quoting propagandists because the only value here is confirming that Ukraine is making progress; it's probable Ukraine took more than what they are admitting.

Peredovichok's telegram channel posted their latest approved reports of unit gains, reporting they've taken the village of Berkhivka. In the Bakhmut direction, advances were made up to 1.7km. A lot of videos of prisoners being taken in the Bakhmut direction to be added to the POW exchange fund

The 3rd Assault Brigade's telegram reports:

quote:

We liberate our lands and clear the flanks around Bakhmut!
During the last day, the Third Assault Brigade pushed back the enemy from territories with a volume of 1.8 km along the front line and 1.2 km deep into the front.

As a result of the offensive actions of the 2nd assault battalion, units of the 57th brigade of the Russian Federation and detachments of "storm z" prisoners suffered significant losses: about 30 "two hundredths"; and 40 "three hundred" Russians.
Warehouses with Russian BC, equipment, in particular BBM, tanks and enemy artillery, were also liquidated.

Thus, the enemy's forces were almost completely pushed back beyond the canal, where the positions of the occupiers were located recently.

As always, all the video evidence will be on the Third Assault channel soon.

Just imagine, this could all be over if Putin withdrew his forces and the people of Ukraine could begin rebuilding their lives. It is all such an unneccessary tragedy, and it is all caused by a kleptocratic fascist who wanted to have a legacy of being a tzar. So utterly tragic.

It's also nuts to me how simple the motivations for all the poo poo that happens these days are. None of this is a massive intricate world-spanning conspiracy to pit various rival factions against each other. It's just one guy who wants to loving take over the world like a god drat cartoon.

Like Trump with his documents. Oh well it's this secret master plan to expose the Deep State and Biden's corruption and blah and foo! No he's just a loving toddler who stole cool poo poo.

So many of our world leaders are overgrown toddlers with no further ambitions beyond what benefits them themselves. Some people have a need to believe that the world is "logical" and follows a script like a movie or book or something, while as you said it is both infinitely more complex and stupid than that at the same time. When the world doesn't conform to their worldview, that just utterly breaks them in half and they jump into a fantasy world that they've collectively invented, where American divers leave their shoes next to a bombed pipeline. It is a syndrome not much unlike how libertarians see the world to be honest! Quite fascinating and pretty sad at the same time.

Ukraine is halfway to Tokmak at this time. They are now operating an L shaped front on staromlynivka aswell, which is on the road to Mariupol albeit far away.

Melitopols north and east are going to be under threat here soon. And that is the major military hub for Russia as it stands. And taking it is tantamount to the next phase of the war as it's the largest fortress, and supply capital of the war effort. Swinging down on it and also allowing a retreat vector will be helpful for Ukraine to achieve this task.


At this time, the Dniper reservoir has emptied insanely low to the point where people can walk out 30 meters of previously flooded areas.

It's bad, Main stream is saying the reactor is In no danger, I feel this point needs more time as a nuclear disaster would be something that really pushes the European populace to clamor for direct intervention in Ukraine. The future of the reactor seems to be OK according to the goons I trust to know something about these things.


I keep hearing that the counter attack has begun but I think there's some significant shaping and deep striking going on before the real offensive kicks off in a day or two.

I think we have just been very lucky so far, with the right people at the right place at the exact right times to stop people like Putin from, either accidentally or with purpose, destroying us all. We have very often been at the edge, but managed to get pulled back by one true hero who either said no or refused to follow orders. Pretty scary.

The surest sign the counter offensive on is this deafening radio silence from the Ukranian side.

There's a real aura of "shut the gently caress up and lets go to work" not just from the front, but from the usual eager and reliable war correspondents.

I suffered from a lot of anxiety about this for a long time, and I just had to make peace with the fact that this has been a possibility my entire life and will be once this war is over (and I'm not sure if wars are ever really over). We're all constantly in a quantum state of dead and not dead.
