Russia's creeping advance gathers momentum against Ukrainian defenders

Russia has gained more territory in 2024 than it lost during the whole of Ukraine's much-anticipated counter-offensive last summer.
The question is what has gone wrong for Ukraine and what are the Russians doing differently?
From the deterioration of Ukraine's air defences to the sheer weight of troops and materiel Russia is bringing to bear, Forces News looks at why Moscow is gaining momentum.

Do you actually understand what NATO is? It’s not a club where everyone just chips in a bit and makes an army. NATO means EVERY army of those 32 member states goes to war with Russia. Russia now has 32 countries to fight. Not just on one front. Australia, Japan and South Korea are also member states of NATO. This opens up a war in the pacific for Russia. Yeah if we are talking about just Russia fighting NATO here they don’t stand a SINGLE chance. They’ve struggled to invade one country in two years when their plan was to have it done in weeks.

With the ubiquity of smartphones and very small low-power video camera IC's, this is the most well documented war ever. There is a vid going around all the summary channel today of a Russian soldier moving from one trench to another all by himself. You can clearly see at least three FPV drones try to hit him but only one got close enough to even cause him to hit the dirt. The crazy thing is *he walks like he isn't even afraid of instant death* ; two detonate behind him and he doesn't even hurry. You can tell he's carrying a lot of weight but it is hard to tell exactly what it is other than his rifle. The bloggers speculate either AFU drone corps is less experienced due to losses, or the soldier was carrying some kind of personal anti-drone tech causing the drones to go out of control once they got near him. 21st century warfare.

Sungguh bodohnya rakyat ukraina memilih presiden yang menjadi badutnya Amerika dan Nato. Banyak nyawa tentara ukraina di korbankan hanya demi kepentingan politiknya zelensky dan Amerika. Begitu banyak tentara ukraina yang gugur dalam perang, mereka mengorbankan hidupnya dan meninggalkan keluarganya hanya demi mempertahankan kehidupan zelensky yang tinggal dan makan enak di istana. Sedangkan para tentara ukraina berjuang di medan perang. Semoga rakyat ukraina cepat sadar dan merubah pola pikirnya. 😂😂

Suprisingly sound depressing...but others stated that in general the Russian push began to slow down..pray for that..
