Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments PART 2

This is a war of attrition, and Ukraine has been on a population decline for decades, which accelerated since February. Russians can afford to play the long game. With a population advantage of 4 to 1, 147 million people compared to 36 million people, the balance of power will shift to Russians over the next few years and decades. By 2050 Russians can go on the counter offensive with absolute overwhelming man power advantage of 10 to 1.

A telegram channel I was following said 6500 Russian surrendered to the Ukrainian in Izyum.....

Most likely that is an exaggerated number, but that have to be in the thousands........

Hpefully - numbers are confirmed soon. Which ever way you look at - not good for Russia.

Seeing that was the anchor point for the entire Eastern Zone, it has to be in the thousands.
 
Russian Ministry of Defense:

In order to achieve the goals of the special military operation and to increase the efforts in the Donetsk direction, it was decided to regroup the troops in the Balakliya and Izyum districts.

/facepalm/
 
The collapse is stunning. I really thought they’d put up a fight by now.
Well, that's a complete Intelligence failure on Russia ends.

You don't just pull a counter offensive like that out of thin air, you need to group your troop, establish a staging area, stockpile ammunition and resource, kind of the stuff our intelligence picked up on what Russian is doing when they say they have no intention to invade Ukraine back in December last year.

None of that was picked up by Russian intelligence, there are no SIGINT or ELINT warning them they have stuff stacked somewhere. And then the Russian managed to switch from Russian initiative to Ukrainian initative.....that's just bad...
