Could the Ukrainians actually be winning the Battle of Kharkov? [View all]

Multiple captured Russian vehicles and artillery, dozens of destroyed Russian tanks and a complete repulse of Russian forces close to the city. Could this turn out to be the Miracle?

NOTE: the night of the invasion, FREEPERS were predicting the city would be in Russian hands by morning. That was over 36 hours ago and the tanks and vehicles they were referencing have either moved back or are piles of burning scrap metal. Pictures of burning Russian vehicles and dead Russian soldiers ARE from the Battle of Kharkov.
