You do realize that the reason Russia leftKherson, is because it was impossible to supply troops on the other side of the river.
And Russia had bridges to supply the troops.
When they retreated, they blew up all the bridges, meaning that the Ukrainian advance into Crimea that you claim is “coming” would have to be an amphibious assault.
And even if they were able to pull off an amphibious assault, they would be in the same precarious position that Russia found itself in (unable to supply troops).
In short, you and the Tweeter have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.
If Ukraine is able to take Crimea, it would be after they take the Donbas, and the northern regions.Ukraine announced today that Russia was making advances in the Donbas.
Natasha I didn't read none of that bullshit you posted, but keyed in on this fuck shit here....
Yeah you and your brand of conspiracy theorists who have been wrong since page 1 can have a cup of SHUT THE FUCK UP and sit back and wait and see what's going to happen like the rest of us. How about that for a change? Cause your if anybody don't know what the hell they are talking it about it is YOU!!!
This is coming from a Putin propagandist who said the war would be over on a weekend 10 months ago???

The Donetsk Separatist Army Went To War In Ukraine With 20,000 Men. Statistically, Almost Every Single One Was Killed Or Wounded.
In nine months of brutal fighting, the army of the pro-Russian Donetsk People’s Republic in eastern Ukraine’s Donbas region has buried or sent to the hospital as many men as it had in its entire pre-war army.
The separatist DPR began Russia’s wider war on Ukraine in February with around 20,000 men in six light infantry brigades. By November, the army had lost 3,746 killed in action and 15,794 wounded in action, according to the DPR’s ombudsman.
That’s 19,540 KIAs or WIAs. While many of the wounded undoubtedly returned to front-line service, many didn’t. And yes, the DPR army has expanded over the course of the nine-month wider war through the forced mobilization of thousands of men from the separatist state’s 2.3 million population.
But even if the DPR army doubled in size, losing half its ultimate manpower is still catastrophic. The U.S. Army assumes a unit becomes incapable of major combat after losing just 31 percent of its strength, according to the service’s Field Manual 101-5-1.
That the DPR army has suffered extreme casualties should come as no surprise. The separatist state is a puppet of Russia—and an impoverished one, at that. The Kremlin has equipped DPR fighters with outdated weapons and gear—Mosin rifles and T-62 tanks, for example—and sent them on dangerous missions without adequate support.
Russian leaders seem to view DPR men as cannon fodder. “They don't count us, they leave us,” one drunk Donetsk fighter complained in a video that went viral in August. “But I want to live."

Have the crazies on block but I assume it is the usual
Winter is here, and the Russian troops are demoralized and poorly equipped to fight in the cold. The U.S will keep Ukraine's military equipped with the best cold-weather supplies and weapons and intelligence. All Russia can do is retreat and fire Iranian drones into Ukraine cities knowing that Ukraine is not allowed to fire back into Russia. Russia is looking pretty weak to the world, take away their nukes and they are 3rd world county. This will be over in 6 months.

Russia is likely removing nuclear warheads from ageing nuclear cruise missiles and firing unarmed munitions at Ukraine, Britain's military intelligence said on Saturday.
The defense ministry said open source imagery shows wreckage of an air launched cruise missile fired at Ukraine which seem to have been designed in the 1980s as a nuclear delivery system, adding that ballast was probably being substituted for the warheads.
Such a system will still produce damage through the missile's kinetic energy and unspent fuel. However, it is unlikely to achieve reliable effects against intended targets, the ministry added in its daily intelligence update posted on Twitter.
"Whatever Russia's intent, this improvisation highlights the level of depletion in Russia's stock of long range missiles", the ministry said.

Iranian advisers killed aiding Russians in Crimea, says Kyiv
Top security official says Tehran military personnel in occupied areas will be ‘targeted’
Oleksiy Danilov, secretary of Ukraine’s national security and defence council: ‘Until our entire territory is free our army cannot stop.’
Ukraine’s top security official has confirmed that Iranian military advisers have been killed in Crimea, and warned that any other Iranians on occupied Ukrainian territory in support of Moscow’s invasion would also be targeted.
Oleksiy Danilov, secretary of Ukraine’s national security and defence council, said Iranians were present in Crimea to help Russia pilot the Shahed-136 armed drones supplied by the Tehran government, but did not say how many Ukraine had killed.
Reports in the Israeli press in October said that 10 were killed because of Ukrainian military strikes in occupied Crimea. Danilov made it clear that any further Iranian military presence would be targeted.
“You shouldn’t be where you shouldn’t be,” Danilov said, in an interview in Kyiv. “They were on our territory. We didn’t invite them here, and if they collaborate with terrorists and participate in the destruction of our nation we must kill them.”
