It conforms to the sources that I go to. Russia is losing as many as 1,000 troops per day.

I read an article where South Africa arrested Russian recruiters who were recruiting South Africans to fight in Ukraine, a fact that won't be told on the MSM.

Putin will keep going until the United States starts supporting Ukraine again, until he is forced to understand that he cannot win.

Ukraine has destroyed or disabled 8% of Russian oil infrastructure.
