Yeah because when I want to know about world events, especially military in nature, I turn to the Washington Post.

Russia hasn’t given up, but their strange multiple front attempts have stalled. Expect they will recover momentum when they try something simpler. Russia still sells gas, it still gets money on the world market.

Ukraine should be resupplying their military munitions for what will come when Russia tries again.

LOL! The lying scum at WP.

Hostomel airport was to supply the “logistics” for the attack on Kiev but the attempt to take it failed.
In other areas the Russians logistics aren’t optimum but they’re par.

Ukrainians are doing a good job. Hope it’s enough.

There is a widespread assumption that Russia intended from the beginning to capture Kiev, something that was never one of Putin's clearly stated goals. As it turned out, Russia never actually attacked Ukraine's capital city, or even interrupted its utilities, telephony or public transit.

In retrospect, it now appears that Russia's partial encirclement of Kiev was a feint to draw Ukrainian forces to its defense while Russia fixed the bulk of the UKR Army along a broad front on the eastern frontier. For the past month, Russian aviation and missiles have systematically degraded Ukraine's military infrastructure to the point that Kiev may now lack the fuel, mobility and aviation support to reinforce its forces now "fixed" in the Donbass. With the Kiev feint no longer needed, those "stalled columns" that many claimed were "retreating" from Kiev now appear to be racing eastward to encircle UKR forces in the Donbass region. If this is the case, the stage is being set for a decisive battle in eastern Ukraine.

Why the Russian military is bogged down by logistics in Ukraine

Corruption. Its hard for an army to accomplish its mission, when every soldier is trying to enrich himself. Russian vehicles retreating were loaded with Ukrainian stolen items instead of military gear.

A Russian supply truck was destroyed in #Kyiv Oblast a couple of days ago. Curiously, however, it was loaded with washing machines.

“experts say”, “many analysts say” - well, you can’t get any more authoritative than that! We don’t even have to wait for “some say” or the Politifact factchecker to weigh in.

The Washington Post is trash on every other topic but we're supposed to trust it on this issue.

It’s because their entire military is a lie. Their equipment is poorly maintained garbage. Anything that was of any value was stolen and sold. Their conscript peasant army isn’t trained but sold into homosexual prostitution. Their field rations are a decade beyond their use date.

Their Non-coms and junior officers spent their time raping their recruits instead of training them.

No wonder their getting their asses handed to them.

And it’s a joy to watch.

WaPo is trash.
You should be embarrassed that you must sink so low to find fake news just to support your troll narrative,
