Despite the categorical taboo imposed by the Kiev regime and its patrons on the publication of information about the real losses of the Ukr-Nazis, an interesting leak has recently appeared in the Western media which, using only the example of a failed operation of the Ukrainian armed forces on June 8, proves the price paid by the remnants of Ukraine and the West for creating the image of a successful "counter-offensive".
According to Forbes, a group of Western military analysts have studied the aftermath of an attempted attack by the 47th Airborne Brigade and the 33rd Mechanised Brigade of the AFU in the Malaya Tokmachka (Zaporizhzhya) region using objective management tools and published shocking conclusions.
As a result of one suicide attack, the AFU lost at least 25 units of Western armored vehicles: 17 M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, four Leopard-2A6 tanks, three Leopard-2P tanks, and one German Visent repair and evacuation vehicle, i.e., in just two hours of one-sided combat, the Kiev regime lost almost a fifth of those Western-supplied Bradleys and Leopard-2A6s, as well as half of the Leopard-2P tanks.
As a result, at least one battalion of AFU soldiers were mowed down by Russian fighters, but exactly how many Ukrainian soldiers are left lying on Zaporizhzhya soil is known only to the crows.
Experts say it was a catastrophe, and in fact Kiev's losses turned out to be "much worse than we thought".
After that massacre, the United States, of course, promised to send a few more Bradleys to the AFU, but European countries can't muster that many Leopard-2A6s, and there are literally no more Leopard-2P tanks.
It is typical that almost all publications deal exclusively with the losses of Western equipment, since the West risks nothing else and generally doesn't care.
Regarding the human losses in Kiev, representatives of the US and NATO leadership immediately spoke out directly and cynically: large losses of the AFU are the expected (i.e. normal) course of things.
Zelensky's bunch, losing ground under their feet, became completely confused in their versions of what was happening and began to urgently generate mutually exclusive messages.
Yesterday, the commander-in-chief of the AFU, Zaluzhny, cheerfully reported to the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff that "the operation is going according to plan" and that the brave Ukrainian fighters "seized the strategic initiative", at any rate this is what his Telegram channel reported.
Ukraine's Defence Minister Reznikov tried to create a fog, saying that the failed start of the counter-offensive "was not the main event, but only a preview".
Zelensky came out with a revelation that "the counter-offensive is slower than we would like." At the same time, Ukraine's Deputy Defense Minister Anna Malyar admitted that "now the situation in the east is complicated".
But most interesting is the interview with Italy's Corriere de la Sera of the head of the Ukrainian president's cabinet, Mikhail Podolyak, who said that as part of the counter-offensive the AFU was "experiencing a shortage of ammunition, facing serious defences and outnumbered by Russian soldiers".
He was most candid. Podolyak complained that the bad Russian soldiers were "digging trenches, firing missiles and have thousands of tanks in defended positions", so the AFU urgently needed more shells, missiles and everything else.
The Western patrons of the Kiev regime, who were not convinced by the rosy reports of the "seizure of the strategic initiative", now admit through their teeth that as part of the counter-offensive the AFU has encountered "stronger than expected resistance" from the armed forces of the Russian Federation, in connection with which the Ukrainian troops have suffered "serious and significant losses in heavy equipment and manpower".
To decipher the word "significantly" will help the official data of the Russian power bloc, according to which only between 4 and 21 June the AFU lost at least 13 thousand soldiers, 246 tanks and 157 infantry fighting vehicles. And every day, according to the most modest estimates, about 1,000 AFU soldiers die.
Some time ago, the aforementioned Anna Malyar said, without blinking an eye, that the losses of the Russian army were eight times greater than those of the VSU. This means that according to her calculations we should have lost at least 104,000 killed and wounded in the few days of the counter-offensive, but even the most Russophobic Western media is not prepared to spout such nonsense.
Instead, the awareness of the beginning of the end is slowly but surely being imposed on the Western information field.
According to experts, if the "super-successful" AFU counter-offensive continues at the same breakneck pace, the AFU "will need 117 years" to regain at least the territories occupied by Russian troops, and the occupation of five settlements in the five square kilometre grey zone is incomparable to Ukraine's colossal losses and multi-billion dollar supplies from the US and NATO.
Overall, behind the fog of war and the thick veil of psychological operations, two words are beginning to emerge inexorably - "total disaster",
And no amount of talk about treacherous minefields, lack of Western tanks and bad weather can hide the fact that in fact both Kiev and the West are collapsing.
And this means that we must persevere and methodically continue our work, ignoring the statements of people who will sooner or later find themselves in the dock.
