It&#8217;s smart not only because we said it would happen, but also because a new pattern of operations from Russia is to retaliate softly against Europe, similar to what Ukraine does in RU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mark My Words &#8211; this year and winter there will be quite a few power outages in Europe if the war is still ongoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/energywatch.com\/EnergyNews\/Policy___Trading\/article18587979.ece\">https:\/\/energywatch.com\/EnergyNews\/Policy___Trading\/article18587979.ece<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, we are a bit lucky because of the climate crisis, so we will have a very warm winter this year \ud83d\udc4d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have a highly positive bias when it comes to UA reporting and praise the smallest victories while mocking Russian successes &#8211; that&#8217;s how it should be, but sometimes we need a reality check too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to my previous posts from the fall of 2024, Ukraine has an offensive reserve which today in the fall of 2025 is probably quite powerful, but they need full asymmetric warfare to win the war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So far, we have seen 65% asymmetric warfare according to my world-leading empirical lab tests and still have a way to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Russia also has a strategic offensive reserve that they have not shown yet and has more gas at the fronts from existing units. They have just made a major movement and there will probably be a gun duel at Pokrovsk-Kostiantynivka-Novopavlivka, and an attempt at an offensive at the Southern front.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have been warning about the Southern front for a long time &#8211; the units there have not been particularly active and thus replenished and rested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>RU has now withdrawn its task forces from the Dnieper front but has not weakened at the Dnieper &#8211; and one doesn&#8217;t have to cross the Dnieper at Kherson, right \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>North of Khakovka, one can almost move to the western side today &#8211; you know that if you have carefully read the posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Something that has worried me for quite some time is, for example, the following &#8211; on paper, Ukraine has more brigades than the attacking RU, and elite units, and yet they are retreating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a class=\"image-link image2 is-viewable-img\" href=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!vyMg!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd4daf2d7-ed15-43f4-9665-b7f6aa0343c5_780x693.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!vyMg!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd4daf2d7-ed15-43f4-9665-b7f6aa0343c5_780x693.png\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:613px;height:auto\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now UA has just confirmed that the staffing is still not great, and after Vuhledar, we understood that some brigades were down to 300 personnel &#8211; probably low numbers in the units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another issue is that RU has found the combination that works with FAB, drones, kill-chain, digital battlefield, mobile artillery, and some armor. It hurts to be on the defensive, plain and simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ukraine must be mobile and give up terrain before FAB finds them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zelensky recently confirmed a high mortality rate among RU, so the tactic drains RU lives, but so far they are keeping up with recruitment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you win the war by moving backward?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No, of course not, so Ukraine is buying time for other parts in the asymmetric warfare, and it was before the summer that we found their new defense line being built outside of what RU intends to conquer &#8211; they are pragmatic after all and do not count on our support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it&#8217;s rather pointless because the offensive at the Southern front is already beyond that line &#8211; RU will not stop at their stated attack goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reviewing the fronts below but first some pictures of RU losses, barbarians are going down and so are hard vehicles.
