Time in Kyiv: 9am, Tues, Sep 13th.
Kharkiv Oblast is free.
Zelenksy announced about 6 weeks ago that a major counter-offensive in the South would take place. After a month of attacking bridges, rail depots, ammunition depots, C&C, bases, etc etc etc, the offensive started in earnest. 2 weeks in, they haven’t gotten a ton of territory back.
But, as all of us paying attention know, the Southern offensive may have been the greatest diversion in warfare since WWII itself.
Over the last week, Ukraine launched the most dazzling counter-blitzkrieg I can think of. We’re going to go over all of that in its glorious detail here.
There’s so, so, so much we don’t know. Lots of opsec, lots intentionally hidden from the public. What I can say with certainty is there will be many a movie made about this in Hollywood -- this is one of the great moments in military and geopolitical history, period. It is very, very likely the tide of the war has turned, and for good. David is now on top of Goliath, pummeling him.
Please excuse the sound. I wasn’t planning to record while on break here but I just couldn't help it. I don’t have my mic!
