The "Great" Russian Offensive in Ukraine Has Shrunk 50-Fold
Remember when the "second army in the world" promised to capture whole regions in days? Well, reality has checked in, and the math is looking absolutely hilarious.
Last year, the invaders were clawing their way through roughly 700 square kilometers of Ukrainian land a month. Fast forward to now, and that number has shrivelled to a grand total of 14 square kilometers.
That is a massive 50-fold drop. To put this in perspective, 14 square kilometers is barely the size of a couple of decent-sized farms or a single mid-sized airport. They are burning through thousands of lives and billions of dollars in equipment just to move the front line by the length of a morning jog.
At this rate of progress, the march on Kyiv will conclude somewhere around the year 4100, assuming they don't run out of golf carts first.
