Watch RT... Russian State Television... THEY will tell you that at this point.

Debating the Russian Army's performance in this war has become tiresome on this forum... it's been the same rubbish for almost a year. Meanwhile, since April the Russians have lost huge amounts of territory, gained almost nothing and are now introducing a draft, recruiting soldiers in their 60s and emptying prisons to fight this war....

If anyone thinks Russia is crushing the Ukraine then they are willfully ignorant at this point. A mindless peon, unable to process obvious truths.
