(#5320) Russia is scrambling as Ukraine forces through front line

      The defensive fortifications that Russia constructed behind the front lines in anticipation of the long awaited Ukrainian counter offensive is sorely being tested. Ukraine has broken through in the Zaporizhzhia Oblast and is primed to advance to the Black Sea. So Russia now must pull troops from other front line defenses to help stem the Ukrainian breakthrough. Which now leaves many other front line positions less fortified and primed for Ukrainian attacks. Russia has limited resources in the occupied areas of Ukraine and their supply lines are constantly being interrupted by Ukrainian offensive air attack strategies.
     This may be the moment where the Ukrainian counter offensive begins its forceful push to the Black Sea. Effectively cutting the Russian forces in half and bringing chaos to their evacuations. It is just in the beginning phases but it does seem like the most probable scenario going forward. Now that the first defensive line that Russia established is now crossed the next layers of defense are not as sophisticated and should prove less formidable for Ukraine to defeat. Russia is quite vulnerable on the backside of their defenses and Ukraine will undoubtedly exploit that weakness.
     If in the next few weeks we see Ukraine continue to push toward the Black Sea then we will know that this invasion by Russia that actually started in 2014 will be reversed and Russia will be forced to flee toward their original borders. Crimea will be liberated and then it will be the battle for Donbas that will occupy Ukraine's agenda. How demoralizing for the putin regime to see the folly of their world dominating hubris turn into a living nightmare. Russia once held a mystic about its military might, no longer though. Ukraine has shown the world that when it comes to courage and through the will to fight, Russia is nothing more than a paper tiger ready to be torn to shreds!
