The New York Times has put out an article describing how the recent counteroffensive in the Kharkov region by Ukrainian forces was heavily coordinated with assistance from the United States.

Ukraine had stepped up intelligence-sharing with the US in preparation for its counteroffensive against the Russian forces in the Kharkov Region, The New York Times reported on Saturday.

Despite Washington providing information on Russian command posts, ammunition depots and other targets to Kiev, Ukrainian officials had been reluctant earlier in the conflict to reveal operational plans to their US counterparts, over concerns that this “could highlight weaknesses and discourage continued American support,” the newspaper claimed.

But it all changed during the summer as Kiev decided that sharing plans for its counteroffensive would, contrary to previous concerns, prompt Washington to provide Ukraine with even more assistance, unnamed senior US officials told the NYT.

This shift allowed the US to offer “better and more relevant information about Russian weaknesses,” the sources reported.

They declined to expand on how much information has been shared between the sides or on how deep the Americans have been involved in the planning of the Ukrainian counteroffensive, the newspaper said.

However, one official claimed that the US had “constantly” discussed with Ukraine ways that it could blunt the Russian advance in the east of the country.

The large-scale Ukrainian offensive with the use of weapons supplied by the US and other Western nations started in the north-eastern Kharkov Region on Thursday after Kiev’s attempts to advance in other areas failed.

On Saturday, Russia’s Defense Ministry announced the withdrawal of its troops from the city of Izyum and some other settlements in the region, saying that these are being regrouped in order “to build up efforts in the Donetsk direction.” During the operation, it added, the military had performed what it called a “number of distracting and demonstration activities imitating the real action of troops.”

Ukrainian president Vladimir Zelensky celebrated the Russian retreat as a victory, but the NYT pointed out that “it is not yet clear how much broad strategic importance those gains [by Kiev] will have.”

This was the first victory of any significance by the Ukrainian side and it was accomplished with their best remaining forces alongside a great deal of consultation from the United States.

The horrible Jew dictator Zelensky has been using this small victory to demand more weapons.

I laughed at this tweet from Jon Cooper.

They took back a small city and some neighboring towns. They are also surrounded by Russian forces who have superior firepower and logistical capabilities. It’s just funny that this clown is claiming that this win represents one of the greatest military victories in all of history. The ability of Ukrainian forces to hold on to this territory is highly questionable. Even the NYT admits that the strategic importance of this victory unknown. It is my guess that this tweet from Cooper will age very poorly.

The Russians are saying that many thousands of Ukrainian troops were lost in both the Kherson and Kharkov counteroffensive operations.

Here’s the latest battlefield map showing the Kharkov region.

And here’s the larger picture to provide a perspective of the small amount of ground the Ukrainians have gained back.

Point blank, the significance of this victory is being exaggerated by the Jewish media and pro-Ukraine shills on social media. It is a defeat for the Russians, but I don’t see why the Russians can’t regroup and overwhelm the Ukrainians with their superior firepower.
