Russian forces may only be able to sustain full fighting capacity for another 'ten to 14' days, senior UK defence sources indicated last night, after which Putin's men will struggle to hold the ground they have already captured from Ukrainian troops.
UK defence sources say that Kyiv has Moscow 'on the run' and the Russian army could be just two weeks from 'culmination point' - after which 'the strength of Ukraine's resistance should become greater than Russia's attacking force.' Advances across Ukraine have already stopped as Moscow's manpower runs short.

as Russia's invasion falters, its methods become more brutal - with cities increasingly coming under indiscriminate rocket fire. Kyiv, the capital, suffered another round of bombing on Tuesday morning as apartment blocks were set on fire by early-hours strikes, though there was no immediate figure on casualties.
Ukraine's military said four Russian helicopters, a jet, and a cruise missile were shot down by its forces which remained in control of all major cities - including the badly-hit southern port of Mariupol.
Putin's stuttering invasion has forced even his close allies to admit, publicly, that things are not going to plan.

Daily Propaganda
John Kerry is right. If the Russians had solar-powered tanks, running out of fuel wouldn’t be a problem...…..
This site as become like reddit deletiang normal comments to push a narrative, what as become of the internet. Where is my comment, can anyone see this?
More hilarious propaganda from the usual “experts”.
All this stuff should be in a Monty Python skit.
Laughable propaganda.
Only a MORON believes NATO is a threat to Russia! Or that Ukraine is. There is no moral equivalency here.
***I’ll match up my thinking to your zero-dimensional Putinist appeasement thinking.
You’re not only one dimensional, you’re an emotional clown. I have no interest in going flawed point by flawed point with someone who has the emotional stability of a teenager.
Fight on internet commando!
An army marches on it’s stomach....... Napolean
The long column into Kiev was severed from it’s supply line making it ineffective when supplies were exhausted. To some exttent, that has happened and the line is withering
“line is withering”
This is wild speculation based on wacky propaganda.
I would hope the average first grader could see through it.
How is it that I’m the emotional clown but YOU’re the first one to throw out an insult? You’re an emotional jerk0##. And, naturally, you don’t wanna match up wit-for-wit, insult-for-insult, intellect-for-intellect, nor emotion-for-emotion.
Lights are on, time for you cockroaches to scatter. Move along now.
“So that makes us the bad guy for invading Iraq and Afghanistan?”
Did I miss the attacks sponsored by state supported terrorists in Ukraine against Russia?
No, I did not! Shame to see Putin butt-boys on FR!
“Only a MORON believes NATO is a threat to Russia! “
Another emotional corner is heard from. Clearly in your mind your an expert on Russia and what they do and don’t see as threats. Gosh, if you really were all that smart, your “talent” is being wasted here.
Another internet commando... fight on brave keyboard warrior.
That was my first thought, as well. It’s the old, “it’s only two more weeks”, gag. I am sure that this is more than two weeks from being over.
This is NOT a military exercise. This is political, social and economic. I think Russia is taking its time, because there are other, larger, things being accomplished that need more time. Half the world may be on the Yuan, before this is over.
The news coverage in the Daily Mail, in particular, has been so lopsided and biased for Ukraine and against Russia from the very beginning that I discount everything they print on the subject.
See post 31 for some remnants of the Russian column that tried to hide in the trees outside Kiev.
“Ukraine being a US puppet,”
Comments like these make it easy to smoke out the leftists pretending to be conservatives.
How is a country being too pro-America a problem? It is only a problem for leftists who hate the USA and want us to fail.
No one is stopping you from going over and picking-up a riffle.
“How is it that I’m the emotional clown but ... “
And then you proceed to prove me correct in my assessment.
Fight on internet warrior!
