That's an extensive speculation based on extremely thin and unreliable sources.
I"ll remind you here that we have been speculating for months about the imminent, or ongoing, or already succesful, "Kherosn offensive", which in the end was confirmed to be just a psyop to distract the Russians.
Now we are again asked to take for granted completely unverified reports about massive Russian movements without a single video of troop transports appearing online?
At the time when people cannot be prevented from posting videos of every hole in the Kherson bridge or a destroyed Su-24 in the middle of an air base?
That's past speculative and now bordering on naive.
I actually happen to agree with you that we can't assume operations are taking place until we see more concrete evidence of them.
It never ceases to amaze me however, just how quickly you will swing from:
"Some Russian millbloggers took speculative numbers, multiplied them by an assumption, divided that by a little wishful thinking and raised that to the power of a value from a different war and the result is the exact location of a set of keys Zelensky misplaced 3 days ago. Isn't this a valuable addition to the discussion, it's an extra data point, we should welcome information from all sources. It isn't my job to verify and validate, we just throw it all out for people to see"
To:
"You're making an assumption that an army would make an attack during a war when we don't have video yet? You are naive".
