Russia is currently decimating Ukraine.
How do we know? Look at how much news we see about Ukraine when their winning vs. when their losing.
When they're winning: we hear about every slight development on the battlefield.
When they're losing: ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฆ
Propaganda is real.
Actually the battle lines have hardly moved at all since Ukraine withdrew from Avdiivka.

frontlines remain static for a while, then suddenly move a lot when one side starts collapsing. Static frontlines is not an indication that no real change is happening.
