Brig. Gen. Oleksiy Hromov, a senior officer on Ukraine’s General Staff, gave the first official confirmation of the gains of an offensive launched Tuesday to the east of Ukraine’s second-largest city of Kharkiv.

The article talks about Ukraine forces advancing on Kupyansk which is a crossroads town of around thirty thousand around 60 miles east of Kharkiv.

Definitely not part of the Kherson offensive.

More Money for Hero Ukraine—Biden should send his son to oversee all the money we are sending. Biden and his wife should visit Ukraine. Russians are folding up fast. The war will be over soon but—more money to rebuild Ukraine. A Job for Hillary and Bill—they could rebuild Ukraine like they did Haiti.

“At risk of being accused of beating a dead horse, I want to re-emphasize some critical points:

Russia attacked Ukraine with a small force that was one-third the size of the defending Ukrainian force. Advantage Ukraine and yet, despite the fact that Russia was outnumbered, Russia steadily pushed Ukraine back, taking Mariupol, Kherson and Luhansk.

At no point did Russia declare any kind of timeline for accomplishing its stated mission of demilitarization and denazification.

The bulk of the fighting from the Russian side is being handled by the militias from the Donbas. Russia has committed only a small fraction of its troops.

Despite a massive influx of western military aid, Ukraine has been unable to force the Russians to retreat. Those who want to point to the current Ukrainian offensive as a stunning success are ignoring Ukraine’s massive losses in men and equipment during the past week. Capturing a couple of isolated, uninhabited rural villages is not exactly a 21st Century version of Omar Bradley’s Operation Cobra, which was led by General Patton and broke out of hedge row country in Normandy.”

The Ukie propagandists switched from Kherson to Kharvov offensives without missing a beat.

Dennis Davydov is one of the worst.

There is all kinds of proof and have been cited by many many sources as such.

Of course, in your continued pro-Nazi support of Ukraine, your not seeing or viewing or reading such cause you, as with many of your fellow Nazi supporters of Ukraine, your asses are stuck simply viewing propaganda-ridden West/NATO/UK/US/EU/NATO media BS. Fact.

How’s that Canadian ‘super soldier’ doing these days, yo?
