Operation Vivaldi, which involves most of the brigades and units of the 3rd Army Corps, is approaching the third of four planned phases.
This was stated by the spokesman for the Third Army Corps, Oleksandr Borodin, in the project “Ukrainian Focus. Morning” on Slawa.TV and “Espresso”.
“Most of the brigades and units of the 3rd Army Corps are involved in Operation Vivaldi. As you can understand from the name, there is a reference to four stages, so there will be at least four of them. We have passed the second, we are approaching the third,” he noted.
According to Borodin, the Russian military is currently trying to hold on to the remaining lines of defense and consolidate their position. At the same time, the spokesman stressed, the enemy is quite disorganized.
He explained that a significant part of the operation takes place before the start of direct offensive actions. This includes, in particular, the destruction of enemy logistics, which reduces the ability of Russian troops to hold their positions.
“We have a loss ratio of 1 to 20–30 in our favor, that is, the enemy’s losses are 20–30 times greater than ours. On our side, the losses are lower than during defensive operations in previous years. The thing is that, in fact, the attack aircraft that go to clear territories and perform tasks are already the final chord,” said Borodin.
He added that by the time the assault units are involved, the Ukrainian military is already carrying out a significant set of preparatory measures.
“Previous work was carried out: destroying the enemy’s logistics, remote mining, isolating areas – that is, a situation was created where the enemy cannot work and does not control his lane. And therefore, the moment when the attack aircraft enter into action is actually the final chord in planning individual assault operations,” the spokesman for the Third Army Corps concluded.
- The Third Army Corps, together with other units of the Defense Forces, liberated the villages of Shandryholove and Derylove in the Lymansky community in the Donetsk region.

“We have a loss ratio of 1 to 20–30 in our favor, that is, the enemy’s losses are 20–30 times greater than ours. On our side, the losses are lower than during defensive operations in previous years.”
An attacking force traditionally suffers a loss that is three to one compared to the defending force. Ukraine has destroyed this precept. And this illuminates the horrific incompetence that mafia land’s potato generals have.
With losses like that, even if putler mobilizes 500,000, they are not going to last long.
They will only feed dogs with their corpses and fertilize Ukraine’s lands.
