I want to say that raising the flag over Vysokopolye and taking three more villages (by the way, which ones?) is too thin a result for a week of suicidal attacks on an open field as part of a counteroffensive that has been prepared since the beginning of summer.
LOL that's really weak sauce for someone who was boasting about capturing some villages in Donbas, didn't get any new talking points?
The "open field" is just a tiny part of the counteroffensive. All those bavovna also mean something. The disappearing of bridges and daily attacks on ferries basically makes the invaders surrounded. Ukrainians don't need to go guns blazing into Kherson, they can slowly squeeze them until the inevitable "good will gesture". Or if the brilliant Russian military strategists decide to send more
reinforcements cannon fodder - that can work out well for Ukrainians too, meaning less pressure elsewhere.
Twist it as you want, but the momentum is clearly shifting. Capture Kyiv in 3 days -> capture some villages in Donbas -> try to hold on to some villages in Donbas -> ah shit, lost some villages near Kherson, no big deal -> next I suppose will be a retreat from Kherson and some desperate attempt to reinforce the land corridor through Melitopol because that's being himarsed daily too.
Easy Win
May require "convincing"
We are on a long path to glory
Oh, well just a set-back
This is looking a bit difficult
What? They are actually attacking us? <-- Kremlin trolls are here.
Seems like our army is making many gestures of "good will"
Ah, marvellous defence of the Rodina ongoing.
That victory near Moscow was awesome.
I have to learn Ukrainian.
