Western countries slipping into recession is nothing. That’s not worth mentioning even I pay more for supermarkets or 2 euros per liter gasoline for my cars. Ukraine has suffered a damage of estimate 750 billion USD. Not including the cost of human lives.
Certainly the west supports Ukraine. If Ukraine falls, Russian rapists and hooligans will continue and in some day in the future who knows they stand in my house.
i cannt understand the russian sources and media those info should be classified ?!!!!
what plane or other mode of transport at what time from which friendly base what equipment.... why should u spread it online to give chance for your enemy to get prepared

man i never expected this level of uncalculated thinking method u and the western school guys follow!!!!
this war should have never started a series of catastrophic political strategy and management by every one mainly ukraine and westerns exploded the situation!!
and this war should end as fast as possible but instead a further much more series of catastrophic political strategy and management by every one mainly ukraine and westerns now is making the exploded situation even worse ....
it is smart diplomacy not pumping more gun powder to the fronts that will help every one but mainly ukraine!!!
a f.u.c.k.e.n promise to join nato to become more secure ???? now ukraine is 30 years back from 24 february!!!!! all this could have been avoided by a couple of visits between kiev and moscow prior to that for few thousand dollars worth of tickets or fuel for jets.
wake up a loss for russia is impossible only the price is getting higher to end this , and ukraine will be the most suffering!!
historically the russians had some land given to ukraine like crimea all those regions could have been negotiated to be arms free...
no one will listen before its too late

Some interesting numbers
Ukraine army has 1.2 million soldiers in active service.
In addition to military gears every soldier receives equipment worth $2,000 on average from family and friends (gas mask, boots, winter jacket, helmet, etc.)
The most important military equipment however is the shovel.
To build trench, dig in
Ausrüstung im Ukraine-Krieg: Schaufel als "bester Freund" - ZDFheute
Seit Kriegsbeginn laufen die Diskussionen um Waffenlieferungen. Doch ein großer Ausrüster der ukrainischen Armee ist die eigene Bevölkerung.amp.zdf.de
It is hard to believe they have 1million soldier under arms - guess it would be true - given that Ukraine has done as a full mobilisation.
Russia has done 300k ( which is actually 1million according to its own leaks) - which means that this will be a status quo war once those russian's come online.
Russia needs more troops if it is to over-turn the ukranian army which is now up to speed, fully trained and experienced.
What Ukraine needs now is guns - lots and lots of new weapons..

.
In the southern Kherson region, Ukraine now has the advantage in range and precision guidance of artillery, rockets and drones, erasing what had been a critical Russian asset.
But in recent months, the tide has turned along the front lines in southern Ukraine. With powerful Western weapons and deadly homemade drones, Ukraine now has artillery superiority in the area, commanders and military analysts say.
Ukraine now has an edge in both range and in precision-guided rockets and artillery shells, a class of weapons largely lacking in Russia’s arsenal. Ukrainian soldiers are taking out armored vehicles worth millions of dollars with cheap homemade drones, as well as with more advanced drones and other weapons provided by the United States and allies.
Ukraine’s growing advantage in artillery, a stark contrast to fighting throughout the country over the summer when Russia pummeled Ukrainian positions with mortar and artillery fire, has allowed slow if costly progress in the south toward the strategic port city of Kherson, the only provincial capital that Russia managed to occupy after invading in February.
The contrast with the battlefield over the summer could not be starker. In the Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine, Russia fired roughly 10 artillery rounds for each answering shell from Ukrainian batteries. In Kherson now, Ukrainian commanders say the sides are firing about equal numbers of shells, but Ukraine’s strikes are not only longer range but more precise because of the satellite-guided rockets and artillery rounds provided by the West.
“We can reach them and they cannot reach us,” said Maj. Oleksandr, the commander of an artillery battery on the Kherson front, who like others interviewed for this article gave only his first name for security reasons. “They don’t have these weapons.”
A main highway approaching Kherson city from the west has become a thoroughfare for Ukrainian artillery, with towed howitzers, truck-mounted howitzers and trucks laden with grad rockets rumbling by continually through the day.
American-provided M777 howitzers firing precision-guided shells and striking up to 20 miles behind Russian lines have forced the Russians to stage heavy equipment farther from the front. Ukrainian drones spot infantry but fewer tanks or armored vehicles near the front line, said First Lt. Oleh, the commander of a unit flying reconnaissance drones. “We hear a lot of rumors they are abandoning the first lines of defense.”
