It's because they have no self-reflection skills.

Btw, these are the same people who initially accused me (all the way back in February) of completely inventing this counteroffensive for the purpose of reverting my supposedly fake Russian advances in this direction. All because their masters in the Ukrainian general staff lied to them by claiming there was no counteroffensive.

I will say, the OPSEC operation was conducted well.

But not well enough to prevent me and Suriyak from mapping the entire process of the counteroffensive throughout the last 6 months 😁

But hey, at least they didn't do a trailer this time, like in 2023.
