Love how Simon shifts from Brain Blaze to Warographics by just throwing on a jacket.

I still cannot believe they were able to accomplish all this with only washing machines and shovels.

Greetings from Kharkiv. Thank you for covering this.

[GizzyDillespee]

Simon: "...with Kharkiv ablast."
Linguist: "oblast"
Putin: "Why not both?"

'prepared defensive lines' is a strong use of words, the UA couldn't build proper defensive lines because they were in range of russian artillery so the lines they abandoned were abandoned because they weren't really proper defensive lines

[LikeaGlove]

So messed up that I get excited to see a new Warographics given the content.. but this is easily the best channel on youtube you big bald beautiful man

I've learned this lesson in HOI4. Unless you're China or Russia, never forget your conscription laws.

Simon when do you sleep bro? You have so many great channels/content but I can't imagine you get any sleep 😅

[MoBahar]

I have been watching Simon ever since his first channel, which was a Top5 or tens. I'm subbed to all of his channels, but warographics feel like the most important, relevant, and just suit Simon well. We need this type of videos ! Thank you mate!

The most likely explanation I have seen is moving south will enable them to bring artillery in range of Kharkiv. Seems to make sense to me.

[McClaneEver.]

It was a pretty soft incursion by the Russians. Almost no armored vehicles, guys with 72 hour packs. It seems to be more of a reconnaissance force operation.

Can we do these videos without the high pitched continuous beeping sound? I love this stuff, but with audio sensory issues this was really hard to listen to at times.

[yarugatyger]

In our news in Austria the main reason stated for the offensive was to take Belgorod out of Ukrainian artillery range and to attempt to create the buffer zone that ensures that. Furthermore yesterday the news came US Secretary of State, stated that the US won't attempt to dissuade Ukraine from using American Missiles against targets within Russia itself, that they don't encourage it but will allow it.

4:50 I believe it was initially a probing attack across the front to locate weak points, but as the Russian saw more success than expected they jumped at the chance and pushed further than initially planned.

[BruceFarcau-keoj]

Another brilliant, concise, and balanced analysis. It’s a shame that our major news outlets could never produce and air such a piece, really on any subject.

[southerndurden]

You missed the part about local officials contracting shell companies for fortification construction and embezzling up to 173 million dollars. Leaving the area without many planned defenses.

The S's in the voice track are way to sharp man damn
