I have seen a few mentions of these recent Pentagon leaks about Ukraine’s “spring counter-offensive” in the comments here so i gather that there are some comrades that have an interest for this sort of thing. From what i can tell this article does a good job summing up the most relevant big picture information that can be learned from these documents.

Warning: the author has thrown in a queerphobic “joke” for absolutely no reason which is very annoying and detracts from an otherwise professional piece.

    DC is using Ukraine’s propaganda numbers from a sheer lack of knowledge while having meticulous & exact numbers for Russian forces

    Wonder how that works though. Why aren’t they able to asses Ukraine’s forces with the same accuracy as the Russian forces.

      Maybe they are able to but there is political pressure to tell the leaders in Washington what they want to hear rather than what is true. Or maybe since these are plans that are shared with the Ukrainians they need to keep pretending like they believe their bullshit so the clowns in Kiev don’t get offended. Or maybe they really aren’t able to because they don’t have their own independent intel sources in Ukraine anymore since they basically completely control the Kiev regime anyway, so they thought why bother to spend money on their own intel network when they can use Kiev’s which the CIA spent eight years building up.
