What do Ukrainians see?

[DonRF] Ukrainian fakes are such a thing ... A society that has been driven into the head that we do not know how to fight, it is waiting for wins, and they are fed wins to them.

For an example of how it works for the enemy, I took one of the Ukrainian publics covering the Zaporozhye Front and looked at what they write about the Rabotino area:

1. Aug 13th, according to their report, they had success in the Rabotino area

2. Aug. 12th, they also had success in Rabotino . They entered the village

3. Aug 11th...they also entered Rabotino

4. Aug 10th there were great successes in Rabotino

5. Aug 8th. They captured part of Rabotino

6. Aug 7th they surrounded Rabotino.

Then I began to leaf through weekly:

1. Jul 31st they simply wrote about the attack on Rabotino

2. July 24th they broke into the outskirts of Rabotino

3. Jul. 19 they destroyed Rabotino with artillery

4. Jul 12th were successful in the Rabotino area

5. July 6th captured 1.5 kms square of the village of Rabotino

6. July 1st advanced on Rabotino

7. June 21st - advanced to Rabotino

The question arises - what kind of Rabotino is this, which in Ukrainian reports they took with their tongue many times? Maybe it's a city? Or a big village? No, the village. The area is 3.1 square kilometers. The population in 2001 is 480 people. That is, about nothing.

This village, according to Ukrainian plans, was to be taken on the first day of the offensive. But it didn't work out. It didn't grow. Didn't take off. And as a result, they began to take it in the virtual space. Every now and again. Having come up with a fairy tale that this is the most important point, the capture of which will open the way to Melitopol.

Similarly, as the capture of Staromayorsky and Urozhainoye - to Berdyansk, Kleshcheevka - to Artemovsk. This is of course not true. This is a position. Just a position. You can hold it, you can lose it and move a kilometer away. It won't change anything.

Nothing at all.

Just like UAV strikes in the direction of Crimea, they will not destroy logistics, and the DRG on the Left Bank is not a scourge, it is a DRG in the floodplains, which is eventually destroyed. Painful and unpleasant, but no bridgehead. Just a problem. Which is decided.

And as you wished, this is war. On it, the enemy spoils, and their amazing ones on the zrada increase their popularity, scaring them with a scary one. And they believe in fact, both with us and with them. Meanwhile, war doesn't work that way. By the way, at this moment the attack on Rabotino is underway again. And again, the Ukrainian media will write that the village has been taken. And tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow they will write.

And if they take it, they will start writing about the next village. That it opens the way and just about ... In fact, if each settlement is stormed from two weeks to two months, if during this time the enemy has traveled three kilometers, then their offensive has bogged down. Fully.

And it remains those who have not yet been sent there, according to the principle "To see Rabotino and die", to believe in fairy tales. About the capture of Rabotino repeatedly and for an encore. And about the significance of this village, which in Ukrainian propaganda already plays the role of something like Moscow.

For us, the main thing is not to inflate a myth from these positions, like the Ukrainian one about the Bakhmut fort. And do not start to keep them at ANY cost. Although we do not suffer from this. Tales are in that direction. There, the repeated capture of a small village for two months comes.
