ODESA, Ukraine—Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he was now ready to launch a long-awaited counteroffensive but tempered a forecast of success with a warning: It could take some time and come at a heavy cost.

“We strongly believe that we will succeed,” Zelensky said in an interview in this southern port city as his country’s military girded for what could be one of the war’s most consequential phases as it aims to retake territory occupied by Russia. 

“I don’t know how long it will take,” he told The Wall Street Journal. “To be honest, it can go a variety of ways, completely different. But we are going to do it, and we are ready.”

Do you know anything about "The fog of war" or misinformation?

 

And it will stay "around the corner", I assume you mean hidden/not disclosed, until such time as they decide the time and place and situation is right to launch it/them.

Do you really expect the Brave Ukrainians to commit suicide by announcing the date(s) time(s) and place(s) etc in advance?

 

Grow up!
