A RECAP on Putin's invasion of #Ukraine.
1: Finland joined #NATO.
2: Sweden joined NATO.
3: Outdated Russian military tactics exposed as unchanged since WW2.
4: Russian military exposed as poorly equipped & disastrously led.
5: Russian army decimated with losses & casualties reported between 500,000 to 700,000. It now largely depends on poorly trained conscripts & volunteers.
6: Putin's endless red lines exposed as written in washable paint.
7: Medvedev's daily nuclear threats exposed as the drunken ramblings of a man-child.
8: Russia's Black Sea fleet driven from occupied #Crimea. Now barely operates in the Black Sea due to Ukrainian attacks. Ukraine's also sunk its flag ship the Moskva (Moscow).
9: Ukraine's grain & other sea exports keep growing. Russia aimed to capture all of Ukraine's Black Sea ports back in Feb 2022.
10: Proving Putin wrong, Western countries support for Ukraine remains steadfast.
11: Massive sanctions imposed on Russia and they keep coming. Sanctions include banning Putin's vast propaganda media from the EU.
12: Putin's planned 3 day invasion of Ukraine has now lasted well over 2 years and counting.
13: Russia hasn't achieved any of its military objectives. It still doesn't control all of eastern or southern Ukraine.
14: Things are going so bad, Russia banned its soldiers from using mobile phones in occupied Ukraine - as too much bad news getting seen in Russia.
15: August 6th 2024: Ukraine invaded Russia's Kursk region - in BROAD DAYLIGHT. With the majority of Russia's army in Ukraine, Russia foolishly relied on young conscript soldiers to defend its border.
As a consequence, large numbers of Russian soldiers have surrendered & Ukrainian troops continue to capture large swaths of the Kursk region.
16: Putin claimed he invaded Ukraine to make Russia safer. And he's achieved the exact opposite.
17: DID I MENTION UKRAINE'S INVADED RUSSIA?
