Kyiv is looking for a media reason to win

Commentary by Russian military blogger Andrey Chervonets

Today air defense is working again in Sevastopol. We must get used to the fact that this week we will live with frequent news about it.

On the eve of Independence Day on August 24, Ukraine needs to suck at least some kind of victory.

For four days we will observe intensified attempts from Kyiv to hit at least some kind of object in the Crimea.

They will be the happiest if at least a kilogram bomb is thrown from a drone in the area of ​​​​the Crimean bridge, which, of course, is like a speck of dust to the bridge, but which can cause a massive pissing of bloomers with joy among the Maidan patriots.

They will also probably try to bang HHIMARS rocket artillery on Novofedorovka again. Dill doesn't care about results. They only care about the media effect.

Ukrainians for several months squealed and hung noodles on the ears of the West and its population about the counterattack on Kherson. But "I couldn't." On the Ukrainian side and in the West, severe disappointment because of this.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine have no resources, and all the statements were empty PR, the purpose of which is to manipulate the attention of Ukrainians. Only if the Ukrainians got used to such “promises” did everyone in the West realize the real situation, which could play against Ukraine in the future.

Therefore, now, by August 24, Kyiv switched to the Crimea. To, as I already wrote at the beginning, at least pump something for informational reasons. Outside the city, the estate of successes on the fronts, Ukrainians are looking for them at least in any place.

#1  and hung noodles on the ears of the West

This is either a quaint idiom or a local custom with which I am unfamiliar.

#2 This is either a quaint idiom or a local custom with which I am unfamiliar.

The idiom is not clear but the meaning is:

They shot their mouths off at the West.
