Not sure how long Ukraine can withstand these assaults. It seems like the first wave of the Russian assault was meant to weaken Ukraine, deplete their ammunition and cause a major humanitarian crisis. In the process, Russia got their butts kicked pretty hard. That is war.
I seriously doubt if there is an escalation, Ukraine will survive.
Definately will now esculate after Ukraine Army struck Russian community in Russia today - expect possible Kiev “decision making centers” to get struck in return and those in other cities as Putin said he would do if this happened again.
(US/Obama/Nuland wants war directly with Russia...I suspect Nato is ready now)
