@thegreatdane3627 Russia has pushed almost the entire front, for over a month now. Ukrainian lines are collapsing and being overrun on a daily basis, everywhere. Your dishonesty knows no bounds, does it?

@Lesminster No. What happened was 2 things. One was a devastatingly good strategy by Russia and the other was devastatingly poor strategic decisions by Ukraine. Ukraine belligerently pressed a very costly and fruitless attack on Kherson last fall, when they should have retrograded to a defensible position and built their own defensive works to launch a supportable offensive from, in the spring. Russia then hammered their energy distribution and logistical hubs, all winter, rather than power generation. This forced Kiev to divert massive amounts of resources and manpower to continuous repair of the energy grid and supply distribution to the population, starving the front so they couldn't conduct any offensive operations. The result was Ukraine being left unable to do anything but sit and watch Russia turn Donbas into a fortress.
