Ukraine

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Media coverage has grown gloomier in recent weeks on the back of fragmentary journalistic accounts from the front and reported intelligence assessments from Western analysts.

Defenders can hold for a long time and then suddenly break, allowing an attacker to make rapid gains before the defense solidifies further to the rear.

Russian forces have prepared extensive defenses in depth, consisting of wide, deep belts of skillfully laid mines, antitank ditches and other obstacles.

More broadly, the Russian army has adopted an elastic defense, in which its troops initially fall back and then counterattack once the Ukrainian forces take losses and begin to tire.

They are also attriting assets in Russian-occupied territory, taking out artillery units, headquarters and reserve force staging areas, as well as targeting key supply depots and routes to make it more difficult for Russia to sustain its defense.

It is also unclear how heavily mined or manned Russia’s secondary defensive lines are, but there is good reason to doubt that the Russians have large numbers of high-quality soldiers holding them.

The original article contains 1,008 words, the summary contains 173 words. Saved 83%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

I don't know why some tries to make believe the counter offensive isn't going okay?

I mean we all wanted a movie win with Zelensky riding in on top of a tank, but truth is Russia is really close to lose its last supply lines to half the invaded mainland territory and the whole Crimea...

Why do you think they worked hard to take out all that artillery? And blowing holes in bridges, and going for the key cities they are going for?

I'm no military genius but the Russian supply lines draws fire like honey bumble bees.

Slava Ukraine!!
