Russia’s ongoing Security Military Operation (SMO) in Ukraine, six months later, has turned into a battlefield in many fronts inside and outside Ukraine.

Battlefield Ukraine is burning in Kherson, Donetsk, Kharkiv, Energodar, Slavyansk/Kramatorsk, Seversk, Izyum, and more, each of these fronts subdivided in even smaller combat fields.

The Kherson front became active after Ukraine finally launched the so much announced “counter offensive,” crossing the Inhulets river on five points in an easterly direction. They were repulsed on four of those, the Russians “retreated” in the area Andriivka/Lozove, allowing a Ukrainian penetration they have exploited to the max.

As of yesterday, 09/03, Ukrainian troops were caught in a fire bag, exactly in the area they were allowed to penetrate, from south of Andriivka, to the north of Lozove up to the Plotnitske tract, and southeast to Kostromka, including the village of Sukhy Stavok.

Today, 09/04, maps show the fire bag divided into three pockets, the Andriivka/Lozove/Plotnitske tract expanded south to Blahodativka and Ternivka, pushing the penetration back to the left bank of the river, and two other pockets around Sukhy Stavok and Kostromka each, isolating those villages.

Ukrainian troops are getting pounded with heavy weapons, missiles, artillery, and air bombing, the latter with the added “perk” Russia authorized use of FAB-500 bombs, which

By the way, according to the losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. For sure, Kiev does not take into account those who were swept away by our bomber aircraft in 2 days in the “kishka” in the area of the Sukhoi Stavki n/a. Firstly, it is extremely difficult to get the dead, and secondly, it is difficult to determine whose head is here and whose ass is there. Several tons of FAB-500s dropped right on the head make identification and burial extremely difficult.” (Military Chronicle via Older than Edda)

North of Andriivka/Lozove, along the line Vysokopillya/ Arkhanhel’s’ke/ Bila Krynytsya, Ukraine forces continue to commit reserves despite the staggering number of casualties. Ukrainians hoisted a flag in Vysokopillya, good for PR purposes, however temporary that might be, as all these villages and towns are being reduced to rubble by FAB-500 and artillery. Ukrainians are “freeing” villages that were not occupied, on the right bank of the Inhulets river. Allied forces stopped their expansion along the left bank of the river, a natural boundary.

Units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces entered the village of Bezymennoye to the west of Karlomarksovsky, which was never captured. Russian Su-34 bombers dropped almost two dozen tons of FAB-500 bombs on the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Bezymennoye. The enemy’s manpower, equipment, and tiny ghost village all ceased to exist. (Military Chronicle via Rybar)

The pattern of these penetrations has been Ukraine’s willingness to sacrifice thousands of soldiers in an attempt to show the Collective West their determination to recover lost territories…and to get their next tranche. Ukraine’s governing elite are prisoners of their own deception, their military campaigns are all for show, Allied forces are not fighting for territory per se, but for the decapitation of Ukraine’s military capabilities, to which the Ukrainians are greatly contributing.
