Russia once encircled Kharkiv at beginning of the war

Russia’s withdrawal of troops from a Ukrainian region that they encircled at the beginning of the war is proving their "inability to capture key Ukrainian cities," the United Kingdom’s Ministry of Defense said Thursday.

They are still using a western view on the Russian tactics. The generals are either completely stupid or just doing the PR rounds. Russia surrounded several key areas but never advanced. It appears that was for a reason.

Look at where the Ukrainian army was located. Majority was in the Donbass region, Russia is claiming they were planning an attack. Russia surrounds several of the cities and starts advancing in other areas. They cut off transportation routes to limit troop movements. The Rusian deployments kept Ukraine from sending the troops in the larger cities to the south and east. Sitting in Kharkiv is keeps the NATO and Ukraine from freely moving weapons. Russia also keeps destroying train routes and bridges.

First they were moving troops to attack Donbass, now it's because of heavy loses. Just report on what is actually happening without commentary.

Something strange happened at Snake island. Ukraine is admitting they lost troops, choppers, and other equipment. Russia claims multiple choopers, a ton of drones, a lot of special forces, boats, and planes were shot down. Some stuff coming out saying the US was involved in leading the mission and had commanders on the ground. Internal arguments over whether it was a useful mission or just a suicide mission. Rumors US and Zelenskyy pushed it for PR and military leaders were against it. When it failed, US demanded its commanders back which forced further Ukrainian loses.

If half of that is true, Biden continues to try and start WW3. Both sides are reporting a battle taking place with heavy Ukrainian loses. Will be interesting to see what else comes out.
