For those trolls who did not get it about the ‘feint’ around Kiev..
It realistically depicts the early Russian move towards Kiev as a
feint. This is also my view. The feint, with too few troops to actually
occupy Kiev, had a political and a military purpose.
Politically it put pressure on the Ukrainian government to quickly
agree to Russian conditions for a ceasefire. This nearly worked when
negotiations between Russia and Ukraine at the end of March in Turkey
had promising results. The talks were then sabotaged by Boris Johnson’s
intervention in Kiev where he, speaking for Joe Biden, demanded a
continuation of the war which Zelensky then promptly provided.
Militarily the feint had near prefect results. Some 100,000 Ukrainian
troops were fixed around Kiev while Russian troops from Crimea moved
nearly unopposed to connect the island via a land bridge to the Donbas
and Russia and also grabbed a large foothold in Kherson on the west side
of the Dnieper.

Good reporting and very dangerous. It’s tough to dig each element out of the Fox holes as they cover one another with mortar and heavy weapons.
Headline at CNA: “Zelenskyy warns Zaporizhzhia ‘catastrophe’ would threaten whole of Europe”
But he would say that. “israel” has made repeated such threats:

Where to go next? I can’t answer that. But what to “do” next ,that I can tell you. Bring back in to being the Cheka. Offer rewards for information on traitors. Double payments for catching Ukrainian/Western agents. Allow the death penalty to be reinstated for the commitment of sabotage crimes. And carry the penalty out right after interrogation and military trial.Maybe after these latest sabotage crimes in Crimea and Kursk.Plus the terror murders the Ukrainian terrorists are committing in the liberated territories Russia will start waking up and acting to do what they should have done months ago.We’ll see I guess:

Great action reporting. The feel of the intense fighting is powerful.
