Details of Operation Vivaldi

“For the first time since the war, since 2022, the troops of the Third Army Corps conducted a defensive operation in the entire zone of their responsibility. First, the enemy was completely stopped, and then, creating a complete atmosphere of chaos and uncertainty for the Russian command, a whole series of counterattacks, a whole complex of operations at the tactical level, was secretly and suddenly carried out. And a counteroffensive was carried out in this entire zone, which led to the decisive result that the enemy was defeated,” Butusov noted.

Consequences

Thus, the most dangerous enemy bridgehead in this area, which really created the threat of the rapid loss of the Estuary , was eliminated .

In his opinion, this happened thanks to qualitative changes in the army and the organization of military command.

Separately, Butusov emphasizes that the Third Army Corps did not receive a single airborne assault brigade, a single assault regiment, or a shock formation to carry out this operation. Джерело: https://censor.net/ua/n4026573

  1. Slava Ukraina, Heroyam Slava! Russian Army totally defeated near Lyman. Remains crossed the river eastwards.

  2. I wish the situation in the cities being attacked day and night were as manageable as that on the frontlines.

    • Those who want to help Ukraine: the steadfast ones like the Scandies, Holland, UK, the Balts and Japan (unfortunately so far only non-lethal) are, incredibly, in the minority. We have Poland, once rock-solid but they recently voted for a fascist president, plus normally reliable France and Gemany are getting wobbly.
      Polls predict a putler-owned shitbag taking over in France and even Germany looking shakey with nazi AfD currently on the rise.
      In the U.K., the chance of a putlerist party, ie Reform, getting power is diminishing.
      But all the filth and shit European parties that back Putler are also enthusiastically supported by Krasnov.
      Putler will feel confident now; his piss-stained lackey in Kremlin West is consistently delivering the goods.
      The only good news at the moment is the phenomenal success against all odds of the ZSU on the battlefield.

  3. Why not at least attempt to out away the potty-mouth and confront the situation with logic and principle.
