Russia is waiting for a ‘rude awakening’.
US Senator Lindsey Graham says that the Ukrainian counteroffensive will begin in the coming days and the Armed Forces of Ukraine will demonstrate impressive strength, Politico reports. He visited Kyiv.
He noted that the President of Ukraine and his team allegedly spoke about their plans for a counteroffensive. The Russians are “in for a rude awakening” when the Ukrainian counteroffensive begins.
“In the coming days, you’re going to see a pretty impressive display of power by the Ukrainians,” Graham said.
He claims that the Armed Forces of Ukraine have already “shaping operations” — that is, strikes that stretch Russian defenses of the occupiers. Graham is convinced that Ukraine will be able to oust the Russian Federation and take back some strategic locations before the end of the year.
Counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
Recall that Podolyak said that the Ukrainian army launched a counteroffensive. Ukraine will use Western weapons against the positions of the Russian occupiers in the Crimea and Donbas, according to Mykhailo Podolyak, a Zelenskyy adviser.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine told about a new "surprise" for the occupiers near Bakhmut. At the same time, he noted that the situation in Bakhmut remains difficult because the occupiers use a large amount of artillery. They have already learned about one "surprise" from the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Ukraine got everything to launch a counteroffensive. The United States stands ready to support the training of F-16 fighter jet pilots, Biden's national security adviser John Sullivan said.
Bakhmut turned out to be a mousetrap for the Wagnerites. The Armed Forces of Ukraine are counterattacking in some directions near Bakhmut. This is an aggressive defence.
