Sounds like Hitler in 1945.
Would be unthinkable to Western war-planners - but Russia is not the West.
At this point it is clear that Putin has no way to take the major cities.
The only military question left in this war is if Putin can hold the parts of Ukraine he has taken. Will the mass mobilization of the Ukrainian people retake those areas before any peace talks?
The Russians are forgetting the painful lessons they learned in 1945. Armored vehicles were not designed and are not suitable for fighting in tight urban spaces.
Worth noting: Active Russian Ground Forces number around 290,000; number of troops committed by most reports: 150,000-200,000. Not even the upper echelon generals know the exact number of troops in the RU GF. Naval infantry (Marines) is around 12,000. See Wiki.

From now on, Kieva is mute. For the storming of the bridge of the Russian Federation, it is worth throwing and sudi all the people’s resources, - the head In Zhirnov Jerelo: https://censor.net/ua/n3324971
The forces of those who are trying to take Kiev should be 5-7 times greater than those who are defending themselves. The enemy must create an inner and Outer Ring of encirclement.
This was stated in an interview with the publication “NV” by the head of the military administration of the capital Nikolai Zhirnov, informs censor.No with reference to the press center of the General Staff.
“As the head of the military administration of Kiev and as a military man, I can assure you for sure that Kiev is not under siege. There is no encirclement of the city,” he said.
According to him, most of all where the enemy has advanced in the Zhytomyr direction is Yasnogorodka. But then it was stopped. Despite the advantage in manpower and weapons, the enemy could not get out and take control of the Odessa Highway. The situation is similar in the Obukhov and Boryspil directions.
“We recorded the exit of the columns, the Armed Forces struck. The enemy suffered losses, went on the defensive and regrouped. We control the eastern and southern parts of the region. Every city in the Kiev region, our neighbors are strongholds where our military and all residents stand up for their homes, streets and neighborhoods,” adds Zhirnov.

Commenting on the situation in the area of Gostomel and Irpen, he noted that at the beginning of a full-scale war, we did not have enough troops concentrated in this direction to stop the enemy on the border. That is why the enemy was able to reach the borders of the Irpen River.
“But now the Armed Forces of Ukraine have stopped the enemy, suffered significant losses. Every day for the enemy is hell, the armed forces and territorial defense destroy the enemy from within. We deal damage to its rear, communications, and equipment. Now the invaders do not have enough resources. The moral and psychological state of the enemy is low and does not allow him to perform his tasks. In this regard, the enemy suspended offensive operations on the capital in this direction. I repeat, the enemy does not have enough forces to continue the offensive,” the head of the military administration claims.
He also recalls that there were military operations in Vasylkiv and Baryshevka.
“The invaders suffered losses of personnel and equipment and refused to advance further. These territories are completely under our control. That is, from the eastern and southern sides of Kiev, the enemy has no advantages,” says Zhirnov.

“According to all military canons, in order to take over Kiev, the enemy must create an internal and external ring of encirclement. The forces of those who are trying to take Kiev should be 5-7 times greater than those who are defending themselves. The troops that are part of the inner ring should storm Kiev, and those that are part of the outer ring should provide security from unblocking troops. now the city has an extremely large group of troops, so now, in order to create a group, the enemy must collect all available human resources and bring them to Kiev. For example, during the Second World War, it took 2 million people and 42 thousand artillery barrels to storm Berlin. Therefore, now it is extremely difficult to create such a group that would storm Kiev, even for a country like Russia,” he continues. Source: https://censor.net/ua/n3324971
The reasoning is faulty. The Russians need not tightly invest Kiev if the region around it is devastated and without food and military supplies that can be brought into the city.
The propaganda dept is about to announce that Ukraine Forces have encircled Moscow and the Kremlin is about to capitulate.
Are they paying you ?
