Artillery shells. Ukrain still has less of them than Russia. Russia out fires Ukrain by a good margin. Until Ukrain can reach at least parity, the counter offensive will be slow and painful.
Ukrain can’t and shouldn’t waste the lives of its soldiers. Russia has no problem doing so.
Western countries are ramping up the production of shells, but it takes time. Until that happens, don’t expect Ukraine to liberate its territory.
Not to mention Ukraine doesn’t want to just flatten a village with artillery
What’s wrong with your E key?
Perhaps English is his second language and Ukrain is how he spells it in his native language.
But then they use the e in the last sentence? I’m so confused.
Oh dang, I didn’t even see the final one. Not sure then. He has other e’s spread out through the text though so maybe just a weird affectation?
Autocorrect probably got confused. I use two languages and autocorrect on my phone messes up the spelling sometimes for similarly spelt words.
Don’t use mixed autocorrect. Its a mess. I always simply switch before typing.
Not just artillery shells, the Russians are far better equipped with anything air. The have way more and better planes and helicopters and way more AA. I’m just an armchair general but it’s insane to me that Russia can’t profit more from this.
Defenders always have home field advantage.
Basically means in war, if one side is attacking and one side is defending, the odds are in the defenders favor. As they can deploy mines, IEDs, traps, advance structural defenses, turrets, and ambushes locations.
Which is why it was so stupid to invade Ukraine in the first place and why it is going to be hard for Ukraine to take back territory.
God war sucks.
At some point I find myself almost wishing for terrorism, like sneak a few Ukrainians in over the Suny Oblast area border and blow up commercial buildings at night…
Then I remember that the whole thing breaks if Ukrainians start being as bad as Russia. (Not that it would be as bad as what they have done, but few people would support that)
The whole thing does not break if Ukraine crosses lines that Russia already crosses. Fuck that. Don’t allow the conservative aggressors tonestavlish an unfair set of rules. Every rule Russia breaks that goes unenforced should be disregarded by all parties. Ruzzia insists on making rules, make them suffer by their own rules.
Weird way to say they are losing.
Advancing slower than expected ≠ losing
Advancing slower than expected= winning. Got it.
Advancing in a defensive war is typically winning, yes.
Everybody loses in war.
Are you just saying random shit?
Kinda. There are other wars, in other countries. But we are spoon fed Ukraine and China. Just countering media narratives hopefully to make people question the paradigm. Why are people homeless?
Weird, that’s not the sentiment you opened this conversation with at all.
just tokenboomer things
You’re definitely toking something and the replies prove it.
Anti war indo. It’s medicinal.
