Probably not, people I think are conflating recon with advances in some cases.
How much more KM to the nuclear plant?
Reconassaince in strength is a standard tactic once you have the initiative, its in the manual!!
If that 1000km2 is true that is certainly an impressive achievement. Something the Russians could only wish to die for. Oh wait, they already have.
If they reach the NPP, could they shut it down safely and then destroy a vital part safely?
March straigth to Moscow 😛
Ukraine sending recon groups deep behind russian lines to cause chaos and break up counter attacks is a great strategy. This is going to make it much more difficult for russians to regroup and try to counterattack. It almost seems like there are no major units resisting Ukraine in the area
If they somehow get that power plant under control they can literally shut down 60-80% of russian industrial production
The advance is impressive. But I strongly doubt they really controll the entire area. They don’t have enough forces to do that.
How much did the russians capture this year? I guess not 1000 km2? Certainly not in three days 😄
All the western military experts talking heads on youtube are suggesting this is a time limited operation. I guess best to keep expectations in check- but it’s already bigger than we’ve ever seen before.
Pls stop talking about this NPP as target.
Even if Ukraine only controls the river to the west, they even get full control over the NPP because they are in need of cooling water.
Do what the wagnerites didn’t do: drive on to Moscow.
I really think people need to think back to StarCraft and the old Zerg rush. Putin can’t build enough tanks and arty to keep the front supplied with things less than 50 years old. If AFU keep pouring supplies and air defense into this gap, I don’t think there’s any way RU could stop them short of a nuke.
It might seem like a huge gamble, but we’ve seen them fight the last 2 years and they simply don’t have the constitution to fight a well equipped force. And meatwaves dying in Russia proper would be hard for the Russian people to grasp.
If Ukraine rapidly rushed all their soldiers and equipment into Russia I think they could take Moscow faster than Russia could take Kyiv right now. The amount of surprise and confusion would cripple Russia completely.
From where is Russia supposed to find the reserves to fight back? There aren’t any reserves left other than the ones already at the front. Ukrainian army could drive to Moscow without being stopped if it spreads enough
It might be technically forbidden to use western military equipment to attack Russia from Ukraine, so Ukraine is using western military equipment to attack Russia from Russia. Or something
Whooooo hooooo!
If this keeps up the AFU will take the npp by breakfast time in America tomorrow, and with that I’d predict a long, cold, and dark winter ahead for the people in russia, they might even need to eat their pet hamsters! 😳😬😂
God I hope they go full Sherman and destroy every railroad, telephone cable, and cell tower in that area.
Couldn’t NATO tanks finally be used in the offensive as they are supposed to be? Fast advance and back to cover without having to worry about mines?
Looks like Tetkino and Glushkovo are cutoff by land/river. Soon to double that territory.
Ukraine needs to reach the powerplant and turn it off
Then sit tight inside there as a bargaining chip
I played StarCraft and a zergling rush is fun and all, but there’s no way Ukraine is controlling that much territory with so little units.
I’m probably not the first person to speculate but I haven’t seen a similar comment: will Putin use this to justify full mobilization?
Holy fuck that’s awesome
Strike at zero hour With overwhelming firepower They’re fueled by the fear in their enemies eyes It’s a shock troop infiltration A fast and violent escalation Out of the trenches the Stormtroopers rise!
Noncredible defense idea of invading in the North and sweeping south is alive again!
Just to check, I think I’m misinterpreting this, have the Ukrainians advanced further into Russia than the Russians have advanced into Ukraine? Is it close? Is it nowhere near close?
God it’s a good day
This would be the perfect opportunity to send in sabetours send in people with a car with FPV drones hidden in it and fake russian docuements and send them deeper into russia to attack airbases and sensitive facilities
It is possible that over 20k troops are involved. Operator Starsky mentioned that it could be up to 30k.
Logistics though…
I hope they steal some washing machines on the way back.
I know this is great news but man does my heart break for the brave Ukrainians behind the enemy’s borders. What they’re doing is historical
I wouldn’t be surprised if they ended up attacking Z forces from the back- destroying unprotected command and control units, or at least forcing them to pull away from their areas of responsibility, leaving the mobiks without command and without logistical support, -easily exploited.
