The situation in Ukraine: Operational silence holds.

[Tomconroy]

Ukraine is saying little and even Russian military commentators have little to say. Except they do say this: Ukraine has been firing an enormous volume of artillery shells along the Robotyne-Verbove main line of advance and the shelling has also reached the russian rear in the city of Tokmak and other nearby villages. The russians describe a volume of Ukranian shelling not seen before in the War. "Apocolyptic volume" Of shelling
Several experts I have some regard for agree this all is a prelude to a major push. There are reports Ukraine has moved reserve brigades close to the Robotyne front. The thought is that the shelling will attrite the russian forces in the area. But when the push by Ukraine forces will come: no one knows.
Waiting and hoping.🙏🙏🙏

2. Sounds as if the Ukrainians are preparing for a major move south

Tokmak is a very important target/objective that would have major repercussions for the Russians logistically from what I've read. Here's hoping this is the big one they've been preparing for by attriting Russian forces and sacrificing so much.

Many "smart" people said that Ukraine will never make it to Tokmak.

Just a few (8+/- km) to go! Bwahahahahahahahahahaha!
