Russia appears to have launched a “renewed offensive” against Ukrainian troops in the eastern part of the country as the war inches closer to entering its second winter, National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said on Friday.
But Russian troops haven’t made much progress, Kirby said, adding that the new attacks are “not a surprise.”
“The Russian military appears to be using human wave tactics where they throw masses of poorly trained soldiers right into the battlefield without proper equipment, and apparently without proper training and preparation,” he said.

Ukraine Is in Worse Shape than You Think

I could find non-English reports that personnel in some military units have been changed completely several times in Ukraine.
Some western leaders stated loss numbers far exceeding official Ukrainian losses.
Would you believe any data I quote?
So, there is no point for me to waste my time.
The downvote numbers clearly indicate the desire to hide this information.
The downvotes are probably because you’re not smart enough to combine all your links into one post. They’re also partly because your links suck.
1: Newsweek is a US conservative magazine. They’re famous for not having used factcheckers in the past 30 years, and the US conservative movement is heavily influenced by Russia. I wouldn’t believe them if they told me the sky is blue.
2: the link from the Time is a year and a half old, and completely irrelevant to the current situation. It was 1 months into the war, and it was before the Kyiv attack was shattered, for example, or Russia pushed back to the Dnipro.
3: the NYT article basically says “after suffering casualties in one attack, AFU have changed their strategy”. After those changes, the advance in the Robotyne and Novosilka areas was made.
None of that is “Ukraine is about to lose the war” material. Nor is Ukraine winning any time soon, that much is true.
