Just to note, at this pase in about 10 days russia may reach 1M casualities according to ukrainian estimations. I wonder if this will have any impact in russian public opinion or they just dont care
I recently saw on Jake Broe that the Russians are down to using tanks without turrets or any visibility enhancements.
They built a cage on top of it of course, but as we already know those cages are next to useless.
I don't get how Putin can still think they can win this war?
Russia probably lost this war a while back, they just refuse to admit it and keep throwing resource at the problem. Putin may have different information and thinks they can still pull this one out, or he may be worried that admitting defeat would weaken his position too much.
he may be worried that admitting defeat would weaken his position too much.
I think this may be a major reason, he simply doesn't dare face the consequences of losing the war, and having wasted lives and collapsed the Russian economy for nothing.
So he is setting Russia up for extending the war indefinitely. But I think Russia will collapse soon, everything is going downhill in Russia, and for no good reason.
Ukraine on the other hand has very good reason to fight, they are fighting for independence and freedom from the Russian regime.
win this war
Attrition, and that's seriously a concern. Ruzzia Führer simply can easily afford to slaughter several 10.000s more of his orcs as he doesn't care. Ukraine does by far not have that deep of a reserve.
The war of attrition is hurting Russia more than Ukraine, because Ukraine has better help, and Russia has way bigger losses due to pushing without sufficient equipment.
can easily afford to slaughter several 10.000
But that's just a weeks worth of casualties at the current rate! And Russia is already stressed to the limit from shortage of workers, and their economy is collapsing. With continuously worse military supplies for Russia, while Ukraine is improving, there seems to only be one possible result. Even Russia can't continue the meat attacks forever.
