  1. that's assuming you are actually advancing! if you are failing to advance and repeatedly taking big losses to the counter punch, the 3:1 ratio goes sky high, hence Ukraine's astronomical losses in the last 6 weeks.

  2. oh yeah, doing really well. at the current rate of "progress" it will get to the Sea of Azov and cut the Russian land bridge in 16 years. any boy born today will be drafted into the Ukrainian armed forces to witness this magnificent triumph.

  3. Mike Martin looks exactly as his narrative stands, in total ruins. the poor guy looks awful. just so absurd how he trumpets 80% of Ukrainian heavy weaponry still exists as we enter WEEK SEVEN of a counter offensive that STILL is bogged down in the security zone, going nowhere.

  4. who is lying? NATO said Ukraine had everything it needed for a successful counter offensive. Zelensky says a lack of weaponry has stalled the counter offensive. take your pick. one of them is lying, but maybe best to disbelieve anything both NATO and Zelensky say.

  5. this whole "8 kms" bs is such nonsense. 8 kms represents the GREATEST extent Ukraine reached at any point along the frontline, BEFORE Russian counter attacks. Essentially, Ukraine has only moved 2 or 3 kms closer to the Sea of Azov AT ONE POINT along the front line. It's nothing. At the cost of 26,000 cannon fodder. If Mike Martin sees that as a glorious success, he has confirmed himself to be a propagandist, not a military "expert".
