Berletic: West Admits Russia Outguns Them as Ukraine Suffers Heavy Losses Amid Failing Offensive
Posted by sashimi on September 18, 2023, 7:19 pm
Update on the conflict in Ukraine for September 18, 2023 * Ukrainian offensive operations remain stagnant along the line of contact with Russian counterattacks overturning what superficial progress they do make;
* The Western media citing US and other NATO member state officials admits Ukrainian forces lacked the proper training to conduct a successful offensive;
* As Western sources begin admitting to Ukraine's catastrophic losses in men and materiel, they also admit Russian losses are near all time lows;
* The collective West also acknowledges that the amount of ammunition and weapons Ukraine requires is beyond the West's ability to provide both in the short and intermediate future;
* In order to provide such levels of material support, the West would need to significantly mobilize its population, industry, and military, a prospect that isn't even being seriously considered let alone planned;

According to the western media, the Ukrainians have apparently hammered a significant breach in the Russian lines of defense and are finally succeeding in moving forward. They are egaging with and defeating the Russians.
First they are using infantry to move through the massive minefields and are leaving their tanks and heavy equipment behind, working at night, which means the Russians don't have proper night vision capabilities or flares to light up the battlefield, though, of course these are merely details in the Ukrainian narrative.
Secondly they have succeeded in destroying most of the Russian artillery, command posts, logistics and supply lines, behind the actual lines of fortifications.
As far as I can see, all these stories have only one source, the Ukrainians themselves. There is absolutely no independent or neutral verification of any of this, at all. No western journalists have been allowed anywhere near the actual frontline to examine the veracity of the Ukrainian claims to substantial military success, a turning point in the war.

Trickling forward is what you do when you can't escape the firepower of the opponent. Cf. the Battle of Broodseinde, 4 October 1917.Clio the cat, ? July 1997 - 1 May 2016 Kira the cat, ? ? 2010 - 3 August 2018 Jasper the Ruffian cat ? ? ? - 4 November 2021
