“Who is actually winning the war in Ukraine has changed almost weekly. Just five months ago, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine looked very different. Putin launched a three-prong nation-wide assault, raining down cruise missiles, surrounding the capital and taking small villages and towns. But very quickly, Ukrainian forces held their defense lines and forced the Russians, who had come unprepared for a long fight, to pull back.
Now, the war is a battle of positions, with the Ukrainian forces on the defensive in the Donbas region, trying to slow the Russian advance down. VICE News travels to the Kharkiv and Donbas regions of Eastern Ukraine to gain a clearer understanding of an ever-changing and volatile frontline in one of the world’s most brutal ongoing conflicts.”

As you and others here are well aware of, I know exactly what the ‘current status’ of the Ukraine-Russian conflict is through various credible sources. That said, the ‘current status’ of Ukraine is growing bleaker and bleaker with each passing day of Russian 10-1 artillery saturation of various key Ukrainian positions and static strongholds. Personally, Russia’s goal is not to necessarily topple the current Ukrainian regime under ZelenskyyIdiot but to utter wreck the Ukrainian military and its capacity to wage conflict in any significant way. In short, the war of attrition is no in favor of Ukraine, at all, and invariably, most of Russia’s goals will be met while also deeply diminishing and embarrassing the West, the US, the EU, and NATO. Sanctions are clearly backfiring on the West and the US. I can go on.
The Russians are down to sending the volunteer FAT guys to work checkpoints.
