When to expect a counteroffensive

There are several important things to understand about the counteroffensive:

1. The information situation around fostering an atmosphere is part of the war. The enemy, who is constantly thinking about where we will strike, is exhausted. it is sending its reserves back and forth. It constantly keeps his troops on edge, etc. Excessive nervousness leads to wrong decisions, which is very beneficial to us. Of course, these expectations are exhausting us, but you must admit that there is a difference between expecting to be attacked and being the one attacking.

2. There is a lot at stake. The success or failure of our counteroffensive directly affects our support from our partners, and possibly the course of the entire war. Therefore, it is better to "overdo it" than not to succeed. In recent weeks, there has been a new shift in Western aid, so it is certainly better to wait for it and show more results. The new long-range missiles have already proven themselves. More air defense means more lives and equipment saved. Yes, this postpones a full-fledged offensive, but it definitely strengthens it.

3. The enemy is not sitting idle. Guided aerial bombs have become a real problem for our troops. In fact, the advance in Bakhmut was made possible thanks to the use of these bombs, which simply destroy high-rise buildings. But with the arrival of new air defense systems, this advantage will be leveled.

“In fact, the counteroffensive is already underway every day. The enemy's warehouses and control points are being destroyed, Ukrainian dfenders are changing positions and launching counterattacks”

In fact, the counteroffensive is already underway every day. The enemy's warehouses and control points are being destroyed, Ukrainian defenders are changing positions and launching counterattacks.

So we have to be patient. It is possible that there will be more unpleasant news. But the power of the Ukrainian Armed Forces is growing every day, with each new piece of weaponry. Let's remember how last year everyone was preparing for the liberation of Kherson in early fall, but they liberated Kharkiv. And then Kherson.
