Meanwhile Russia already now produces three times as many artillery shells for the Ukraine warzone than Europe and the US together. Thats hilarious.

And the Russian's use of new 1.5 ton glide bombs summons hell and desaster on Ukrainian dfeences and building targets like poowerplants. It seesm the Ukrianains have no defence against them. Their morale is taking a beating, too.

When i add all the many media snippets of comments, informations, news, reports and such together and stitch it all together, I get the picture of that something serious is breaking apart in the Ukrainian resistence currently, and on a deep-rooting, structural level. But that is my subjective perception, and generally across all the picture. I cannot point finger on this and that detail and say, "here, thats the cause". Its not so much just a visible crack in the wall, but a subtle, general vibration of the whole building. Sooner or later every ongoing attrition must lead to structural breaks, however.

The spring mud period coming maybe will slow Russia down, but at least until the "elections" in Russia they will press on. Ukraine may try to hide behind minefields, but different to Russia last summer Ukraine no longer has the artillery to take advantage of Russian units bogging down in these minefields.
