    Heres the thing, they are going all out within they have been allowed, Putin has ordered the FSB to NOT take troops from the Donbass. The FSB has taken a good number from all other combat fronts, and a bit from the Donbass as well because they really need the troops, but Russia is unable to conduct maneuver warfare for many reasons, and thats how Ukraine is currently fighting so, Russia is unable to push the Ukrainians out

  2. They will not leave Crimea even though Ukraine did not blow up the bridge. It is Russia’s last stand.

  3. Having a Ukrainian invasion right on Russian soil works marvels for recruitment and production.

    Extending supply lines into Kursk takes a lot of resources for Ukraine. Just like it takes a lot of resources for Russia to supply its own invading forces.

  4. They have. They have put everything they can into it…it’s just that their everything is shit

  5. They are like a monkey with its hand in a jar. Just won’t let go of what it has in its hands in order to pull its hand out.

  6. They are going all out to take back Kursk. Going “all out” means throwing in everything you have available.

    This is that. This is everything available. It’s all they’ve got.

  7. Most of the comments here are quite delusional… I’m all for Ukraine and strategically speaking they know way better than us, but so do the Russians.
    They are playing the long game with Kursk and judging by recent reports this last few days they have been taking back a lot of territory there.

    Unfortunately it’s a matter of time and blood before they take back all their land.
    And then UA will attack somewhere else!
