Do not overstate, do not overjoy.
Remember: ‘There is no panic!’ (c)

dolgan

yes rybar is close to say its a great victory

Triglav

I don’t think this is the counteroffensive yet. The Ukrainians just exploited a small localized weakness in the Russian positions

dolgan

its make 2 localized weakness point.

Doubze

Even if caution must remain the order of the day, the situation around Bakhmut seems to be evolving in view of the latest Ukrainian and Russian movements. Information “confirmed” by Russian bloggers like Rybar.

Tristan

So far, it’s only probing attacks to know where Russian defense is weak. But Russians have the ultimate strategy to confuse Ukrainians: they are weak everywhere, so Ukrainians can’t decide where to counter-attack :p

vshdflkvn

Ukrainian mind games to cause panic in the Russian lines have been wildly effective throughout this war.

Someone

Seems like the Ukrainians are starting their counter-offensive…or it might just be recon by force

kris

Soil still too wet. Need about 2 more weeks or more.

gryna

These are just local counterattacks. The real counter-offensive will begin when Western tanks are involved
