Well, howdy there internet people, it's Bell again. So today we're going to talk about Ukraine,

stated goals, and statements about power plants.

Okay, so Ukraine has now officially stated that there are Ukrainian troops operating inside Russian

territory.

They even provided a rough number of the amount of troops operating there.

Ukrainian officials said, quote, thousands.

This is far more than the number estimated by Russian officials.

Maybe Ukrainian officials are overestimating to throw Russia off, or maybe some troops

just got lost and Russia didn't account for them.

Reporting suggests Ukrainian forces have made it about 30 kilometers into Russian territory.

And Russia is running air-to-ground operations on their own soil to try to dislodge them.

So now that the Ukrainian officials are admitting the action,

what is their stated goal?

One of the officials said, we are on the offensive. The aim is to stretch the position of the enemy, to inflict maximum losses, and to destabilize the situation in Russia, they are unable to protect their own border.

There will be a video below to explain this more fully.

Now, on to the question of whether or not it's working. A Russian

military correspondent said that Russian forces inside Ukraine were trying to move

forward and not lose the initiative, but they were having issues

because a large part of their force were transferred to, quote, you know where.

Yeah, I think we do.

Now on to a widespread concern that at least for the time being appears to be overblown.
