OK, I will take you seriously based on post history, and give more credit to your sources.
Vetting sources isn't completely impossible, unless you are a true believer in some cause. In that case good luck.
This isn't hard, it's not that difficult to filter things really, but it does take some effort. OK, even then it can be difficult.
I'm a third party to the discussion you were having with GeauxxxTigers23 as it sounds like you may have been replying to him in your reply to me?
I agree vetting sources isn't impossible, in fact it is relatively easy if you have the time to dig a bit deeper beyond the surface material.

Yes, sorry. Don't know how the signals got crossed. You are one of the best on here at vetting sources, and that does take effort.

Are we in favor of replacing the spring offensive wording with summer offensive yet? Looks like timelines are slipping a bit.
I am working in London so I only have a couple of minutes to check the thread at 2AM before going to sleep. I would be up all night if they started the offensive. They need to hold off until Monday at least because my ability to follow the offensive when it starts is paramount to its success!

Rain is forecast the next few days, so I think you're good.

I haven't managed to trace back to original sources or found geolocation yet so there is a chance they are reused or appropriated material, though initial impressions are that this isn't the case.

INTELLIGENCE UPDATE
UPDATE ON UKRAINE 29 April 2023
In the early hours of 28 April 2023, Russia launched the first major wave of cruise missile strikes against Ukraine since early March 2023. Although Ukraine shot down most of the missiles, at least 25 civilians were killed.
The attacks suggest a departure in Russia's use of long-range strikes. The wave involved fewer missiles than those over the winter and was unlikely to have been targeting Ukraine's energy infrastructure. There is a realistic possibility that Russia was attempting to intercept Ukrainian reserve units and military supplies recently provided to Ukraine.
Russia operates an inefficient targeting process and prioritises perceived military necessity over preventing collateral damage, including civilian deaths.

A massive fire at an oil depot in Sevastopol, in Ukraine’s Russian-occupied Crimea, raged out of control on the morning of April 29, sending a towering black cloud of dense smoke into the air over the city.

These intel updates are amateur hour. How many missiles were fired? How many were shot down? How many hit their targets?

Perhaps we’re seeing the laying of preliminary groundwork for the long awaited Ukrainian Spring Offensive. That’s just an educated guess. But I imagine that refinery is a rather important source of fuel for both Russian ground forces operating in Ukraine and the Black Sea fleet.

It makes me wonder how much fuel the UA has stockpiled for an offensive. I don’t see a lot of talk about logistics, but no offensive is going to go very far if they don’t have the fuel to support it.
