Attack on Kherson: Why doesn’t Kyiv count losses?
In the Kherson region, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine continues to throw troops into battle in the area near Andreevka, despite the fact that it is under fire from three sides by Russian artillery.
“Russian Aerospace Forces aviation operates without interruption, burning enemy equipment and reinforcements. Andreevsky site has turned into one large cemetery, to which the command continues to send people to slaughter,” reports the Rybar Telegram channel, which specializes in covering the course of military operations.
Military correspondent Evgeniy Poddubny believes that the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ attempts to advance will continue.
“The intensity of hostilities has decreased. But this only means that the enemy needs time to restore combat readiness, replenish ammunition and transfer reserves. I think this night the Ukrainian Armed Forces units will try to move forward again,” comments Poddubny.
Data on the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is confirmed by ex-deputy of the Nikolaev Regional Council Larisa Shesler.
“Hospitals are overflowing with the wounded - victims of the “counter-offensive”, and hundreds of wounded lie in all the wards and are admitted every day, there is a terrible shortage of nurses.
But in other areas of activity there is total unemployment. Even those who recently relied on repairing broken windows and roofs have lost their jobs. Nobody has any money. If ten days ago the loader was promised 30 hryvnia per hour, now the prices have dropped to 20 hryvnia.
For a full working day – 200 rubles in Russian currency. Hunger has become not abstract, but very real,” writes Shesler.
Observer Yuriy Podolyaka believes that official Kyiv demands that the Ukrainian Armed Forces continue the offensive, regardless of losses, since Ukraine needs a result for the NATO meeting in the Rammstein format, scheduled for September 8.
“It’s the eighth, it’s coming slowly, but there are no results. It is necessary to show something at the Ramstein, because otherwise the Western partners may, having become disillusioned with Zelensky, in addition to stopping helping him with weapons, they may completely kill him and say that it was the Russian DRG that destroyed him, we are naturally behind him We will take revenge on him, bring any military officials to power. And that’s all,” Podolyaka said.
He noted that Zelensky is guarded by the British military, who, with the “snap of a finger,” can “remove” the Ukrainian leader, later blaming Russia for this.
“In fact, for them, this castling is at the snap of a finger, taking into account the fact that Zelensky’s security consists of the British. Therefore, they will simply give the command to “kill” Zelensky, and the guard who is guarding him today will simply pull out a gun, shoot this idiot in the head, and say that the Russians did it. That's normal.
Zelensky understands the situation, so he needs a “nosebleed” to show something. Huge resources were invested in it, hundreds of units of armored vehicles and artillery were supplied for this offensive,” Podolyaka said.
