Ukraine is planning a new counteroffensive next year, — Welt.
📍The United States has received a list from Ukraine of desired weapons that includes Black Hawk and Apache attack helicopters, F-16 and F-18 fighters, missile systems, Abrams tanks, UAVs, and ammunition.
📍Ukraine can still count on 95% of all weapons systems supplied by the West, as they have not yet been used at the front.
📍In the south, the Ukrainian Armed Forces hold a bridgehead on the left side of the Dnipro River and continue to expand it. It is only 60 kilometers to Crimea. Crimea is a weak point for the Russians.
📍Zaluzhnyi was not a supporter of starting a summer offensive. A rapid breakthrough was not possible, and changing the strategy was a smart move to gain the necessary time.
📍"Ukraine is probably gathering resources for a new counteroffensive next year. One of the starting points could be a bridgehead in Kherson. With the necessary fighter jets, attack helicopters and drones, Ukraine could provide sufficient support to advance its troops, especially since there are almost no Russian fortifications in the region”.
