Against the backdrop of the Armed Forces, Russia is trying to save the myth of "significant military success" in Ukraine - ISW ratings and a war card

Russian propaganda and officials are trying to diminish the importance and scale of offensive operations of the Armed Forces in the south of Ukraine, as the Kremlin seeks to maintain the visibility of significant military successes of Russia in Ukraine. About it in its new summary on August 29 reports the American Institute of War Study, analyzing new information about the offensive of Ukrainian forces in the Kherson region.

Video of the Analytics Day ISW emphasize that although Russian propaganda denies the Armed Forces offensive in the south of Ukraine or claims that it "failed", many Russian military bloggers "reported a variety of Ukrainian attacks along the entire line of collision yesterday. " "In the information space, it is likely that some time there will be a confusion because of panic among Russian sources," - writes ISW.

They also point out that they can not check or confirm the information on the release of several settlements in the Kherson region by Ukraine. Therefore, the probable territorial successes of the Armed Forces, which are waiting for confirmation, have not yet been displayed on fresh fighting maps from ISW.

At the same time, the report that in the northwest of the Kherson region "109th Regiment of the DNR" left its positions, "may indicate that the Armed Forces forced the Ingulets River" in the direction of Arkhangelsky, experts of ISW suggest. In this context, they pay attention to the message of the Russian Telegram-channel Grey Zone (about 276 000 subscribers) that the Ukrainian forces have advanced 6 km from their bridgehead across the Ingulets River and seized the settlement of the Sukhy Pond.
