In Kherson/Nikolaev and Kharkov area the command, rear services and reserves of the attacking forces have already been decimated or even completely destroyed. They can still move a little bit but they got no chance of keeping the area. In the coming days they will be finished off. End result: another division worth of manpower (the word again ) destroyed for the temporary gain of a few square kilometres.

To be honest, I'm extremely surprised with this pic.
12 systems are 4-6 batteries.
It is almost a whole brigade.
How a weakened brigade managed to survive so long into this war is unbelievable to me.
Batteries radars are missing here, so maybe this is some kind of storage the Russkie hit?

Hardly believe that the Ukrs could keep such big unit in open. It is a ready facility for missile troops or an airfield, so its location is kniwn&obvious. All te S-300 hit till now, were struck on the move, hidden etc. And now, we have almost a brigade sitting on its permanent location and destroyed there? Wow!

The best quote of the article

Nothing will end this war faster than continuing Ukrainian "counter-offensives" of the type we have seen over the last few days.

The Hohols are doing this for purely propaganda purposes. And the battlefield autists get completely sucked into the trap.

From the point of view of the events currently taking place on the Izyum-Balakleysky sector of the front, the threat to Kupyansk poses the greatest danger. The fact is that this is a large and well-equipped railway junction, to which a powerful AC supply line from Valuyki is connected (see red line). He went to the Russian forces intact and is used intensively. Therefore, objectively, Kupyansk in terms of value is the No. 1 logistics hub in the entire northeastern section.

Previously, it was in the operational depth and there was no serious artillery impact on it, but if the Armed Forces of Ukraine come up and can gain a foothold at least 15-20 km from it, the normal supply of troops will be extremely difficult.

Regarding the purely military aspects of the battle, where it tends and what it will lead to - let the experts comment here, I am not very competent in this matter.
