Another day another victory for Ukraine. Or rather a couple victories.

    Ukraine has had some good days lately, inflicting huge damage on the Russians. Ukraine has also been praised by military experts, explaining that the Ukrainian operation is very difficult, but Ukraine is doing a stellar job militarily.

    Go Ukraine, may you win this war soon.🤞

        Well yeah, obviously! Ukraine was (and is) one of the poorest countries in Europe. But if you look at Russia having a huge military and billions and billions more in military spending didn’t help them. In the first months of the war Ukraine had not a lot of foreign equipment and they still held their own.

        What I try to say: Ukraine is fighting for it’s very existence and I think that alone is the main factor why they are so good on the battlefield compared to Russia!

        Money and equipment doesn’t count for much if you don’t employ it skillfully. See: Russia

        Of course it does, but that doesn’t change the fact that Ukraine is performing operations successfully that no NATO country would usually do, in part because Ukraine has very little air support.

        Normal NATO practice is to start with ensuring air superiority, and Ukraine can’t do that with what they have.

        But yes Ukraine depend on aid from NATO, EU and others who support their fight for their country, I guess probably about 50 countries support Ukraine.

        In exactly the same way Russia has support from countries who support their effort of genocide, like Iran, Belarus, North Korea and China.

        I hope you can see a trend on the difference of the countries here.

          China doesn’t provide military support though, it is only a trade partner.

        And equipment, training, and intelligence. But Russia has billions of dollars, tons of equipment, training, and intelligence and they are losing.

        So it really does come down to the Ukrainian military putting all of what they have to excellent use and doing a stellar job.

    They had a pikeman on the shoreline and the sub got too close.
