The Summer of Death: Extremely heavy fighting in Ukraine… Very heavy casualties on both sides…

(000228.79-:E-000157.73:N-:R-SU:C-30:V)   

This is a quick note. The UK Ministry of Defense issued a report on the fighting in Ukraine. They are saying that it is the heaviest fighting since Bahkmut. The Russians are fighting intensely to stop the Ukrainian advances. Both sides are taking heavy casualties. But the Ukrainians are still advancing slowly. The most intensive fighting is in Zaporizhia.

My own analysis in my video in early May was that the real Ukrainian offensive would be in the far West by Kherson. The blowing of that Kakhovka dam would have messed that up. I did say that would probably hold up the Ukrainian counter offensive, the real one, for 1-2 months. But it seems the Ukrainians might already be making attempts to get across the Dnieper river already. They tried a few days ago, and there is no firm proof that they succeeded. They might have failed. But it is a sign that they might be recovering from the dam collapse.

4 Russian combat helicopters have been shot down in the last few days.

The fighting is insanely intense. I’m seeing weapons that I’ve never heard of before, that I didn’t even know existed, especially with regard to mine warfare. Both sides are laying mines and destroying mines at insane speeds. I never knew this was even possible.

The Summer of Death continues on… this summer will determine the future of Europe and Russia for the next 50 years. This summer of death will determine the world balance of power, perhaps for the next 100 years. This war can also determine whether Putin survives.

Regarding my strategic analysis of the main Ukrainian target this summer: I remain firm in my analysis. That is the make or break for Ukraine.
