Russia has lost. They wanted a super quick decapitation of the Ukrainian government that took place while a divided west scrambled to have a reaponse while they squabble with one another
Instead here we sit, the Ukrainian government still in place, a west more united and a renewed interest in military buildup in european NATO countries for the first time since the cold war, crippling sanctions, calls from finland to join NATO, and domestic protests against the war
Russia will eventually win a military victory. But theyve lost

Nah, they're good, baw. Everything is going 100% as to plan. This is how they envisioned it. Any positives for Ukraine are nothing more than propaganda. All the Russian positives are 100%, undeniable truth. Propaganda is a one-way street and it runs directly through Kyiv.

Russian forces face mounting difficulties replacing combat losses in Ukraine, including the possible death of the commander of the 150th Motor Rifle Division near Mariupol. Russian efforts to deploy forces from Armenia, its proxy states in Georgia, and reserve units in the Eastern Military District will not provide Russian forces around Kyiv with the combat power necessary to complete the encirclement of the city in the near term. Russian forces made limited, unsuccessful attacks northwest of Kyiv and did not conduct offensive operations in northeastern Ukraine, toward Kharkiv, or toward Mykolayiv. Russian forces did make limited territorial gains in Donetsk Oblast and around Mariupol and continued to target civilian infrastructure in the city. Russian forces will likely continue to reduce the Mariupol pocket in the coming days, but Russian forces likely remain unable to conduct simultaneous attacks along multiple axes of advance.
Key Takeaways
Russia is deploying reserves from Armenia and South Ossetia and cohering new battalion tactical groups (BTGs) from the remnants of units lost early in the invasion. These reinforcements will likely face equal or greater command and logistics difficulties to current frontline Russian units.
President Zelensky created a new joint military-civilian headquarters responsible for the defense of Kyiv on March 15.
Russian forces conducted several failed attacks northwest of Kyiv and no offensive operations northeast of Kyiv on March 16.
Russian forces continue to shell civilian areas of Kharkiv, but will be unlikely to force the city to surrender without encircling it—which Russian forces appear unable to achieve.
Russian forces continued to reduce the Mariupol pocket on March 16. Russian forces continue to commit war crimes in the city, targeting refugees and civilian infrastructure.
Ukrainian Forces claimed to have killed the commander of the 8th Combined Arms Army’s 150th Motor Rifle Division near Mariupol on March 15. If confirmed, Miyaev would be the fourth Russian general officer killed in Ukraine; his death would be a major blow to the 150th Motor Rifle Division, Russia’s principal maneuver unit in Donbas.
Russian warships shelled areas of Odesa Oblast on March 16 but Russian Naval Infantry remain unlikely to conduct an unsupported amphibious landing.
Russia is increasingly pulling forces from its international bases and redeploying damaged units that were rotated out early in the invasion of Ukraine to replace mounting casualties. The Ukrainian General Staff reported that Russian forces are deploying additional Eastern Military District (EMD) reserves to Ukraine as of March 16.[1] The Ukrainian General Staff additionally reported that Russian command “refused” to deploy elements of the 5th Combined Arms Army (CAA) to the Kyiv advance “due to heavy losses in the south.”[2] It is unclear if the Ukrainian General Staff means Ukraine intercepted a request by Russian commanders around Kyiv for reinforcements from the 5th CAA that was denied, or if they are only assessing that Russian casualties in the south are draining reinforcements initially intended for Kyiv. Social media users observed elements of Russia’s 58th Combined Arms Army based in Russia‘s proxy republic in Georgia, South Ossetia, redeploying in likely transit to Ukraine on March 15.[3] Russia has already pulled forces from its base in Armenia and will likely soon redeploy forces from its base in Tajikistan. The Ukrainian General Staff additionally reported that Russia is forming additional battalion tactical groups (BTGs) by consolidating units that suffered losses in the first 10 days of the Russian invasion and graduating cadets from military higher education early to replace officer losses.[4] Russian forces will likely face further difficulties integrating these units into its command and logistics structures.

Serious question: how are all these equipment and weapons getting into Ukraine when supply routes are cut off by Russians and how will these assets be prevented from falling into Russian hands? Isn’t it a little too late?

One of my rabbit holes has been the NASA FIRMS data.

Seeing that the Kaliningrad oblast has lit up crazy over the last six days. Looks very different from its surroundings. Maybe Russia want to show everyone what it can do with its forward operating position.

The supply routes are not cut. The Kyiv and Polis border is completely open. The Russians have been stalled around the E373 on the northwest side of Kyiv. Which means that P04, E95, and E40 are still open to supply Kyiv on the southwest and southern approaches to the city. The rail lines from south of Kyiv are still open. All the roads and rail lines into Odessa from are still open. The Dnieper river crossings between Kyiv and Dnipro are still open which allows supplies to get to Kharkiv and the Ukrainian forces in eastern Ukraine. Russian forces are in parts of Kherson and Mykolaiv but they have not surrounded and cut off either city so supplies can still get in. The only city that is completely surrounded and cut off is Mariupol.
