Lack of training is sadly a major one. An artist I go to for commissions is from the Ukraine, Her best friend, who was mobilized and went off to fight with almost 0 training just lost his leg

As much as we've laughed at Russia's incompetence most of the war, it is time for us to really pull our pants up and focus. The longer this draws on, the better Russia becomes. It's going to be interesting to see how NATO/WEST/EU Try and solve this looming problem of manpower and morale; Against a country that historically can draw in a vast amount of manpower regardless of moral.

I will never understand the Kursk move by a smaller army desperate for more men and weapons. They purposely stretched themselves and helped the Russians speed up their advance on the eastern front.

This is my own a opinion, as a former millitary analyst, I am the only one saying this, But I believe, that Russia deliberately allowed the Ukrainian attack in to Kursk ( there was little or no defense in Kursk) ...why...how..??, because the Russian Millitary knew that Ukraine did not have the Troops or weapons, and would have to pull Troops and weapons away from the Front Lines, which as its turned out is exactly what they did, , and so by so doing has weakened the Front Lines where Russia siezed the opportunity, and lifted the speed, of their attacks, and is now moving so fast, with little or NO defenses in some places, Plus Ukraine has Lost about 22000 Troops, 100, s or so FPV, s Tanks, Apcs,pickup trucks, Transports, artillary, SAM, s ammunitions Storage, Dumps, . theyve been just totally Destroyed and as I mentioned Russia always knew they had enough Troops, and millitary, to Halt the Ukrainian Incursion in to Kursk, , So they didnt have to take too many Troops away from the Front, so as we now see, that Russia is advancing at a much faster pace, .all along the Frontline than they would, If those Ukrainian, Troops and Millitary hardware had remained in the Front Line, . Ukraine has taken a huge loss in the Kursk, Region, . and once all the dust has settled, FOR WHAT, ..maybe it was Zelenskys, last ditch effort to show the West, " hey were still fighting send us some more weapons, .we can finish the job, even as they have been destryed i Kursk, ..I think the West can see the writing on the wall, .NO MORE WEAPONS, ..
There are no winners, in this War, .just an incredible, loss of life and the Destruction, .of a peoples, Country their, Hopes and their Dreams, .all gone up in smoke, .And to all you Western War mongers, I hope you all feel very happy with .the shocking death and dstruction you have wrought apon the Ukranian, people, .to you, all, .Its, mission accomplished, ...!

According to your analysis the military equipment loses of Russia is significantly larger than Ukraine so far, but still Ukraine lost a substantial amount of its territory to Russia. That's quite absurd, don't you think.

Poland sent more than 300 tanks. Probably around 400-500. Poland was also overlooked when it came to artillery. About 100 Krab self-propelled howitzers, some of the most advanced in the world. Also, Rak mortars. There are even legends that soldiers on training grounds in Poland haven’t seen any BMPs for a long time, while Poland had hundreds of them. Poland transferred most of its infantry fighting vehicles to Ukraine. Some modern ones too. All of this is not classified. Poland has given away truly enormous amounts of equipment but keeps it a secret. This video even omits things that are classified. Poland also handed over combat helicopters and fighter jets. That is, Poland left fighter jets at the border with Ukraine, and someone stole them. All of this is old news. Poland also donated a lot of Goździk artillery. This is self-propelled artillery from the communist era.

Ukraine supporters expect Ukraine to come clutch in the final minute and win somehow

"In my dreams, I smell a barbecue. I see children, a dog, and I see someone. I think I see someone. These things, none of it for me. I move by roarin' engines, among warriors. Death at the gates again. Howling my name. Can't greet you today. I have a war to win."

―William J. Blazkowicz

The manpower they used in Kursk oblast made the AFU less flexible in Pokrovsk sector...
It may be morale boosting but losing the supply front and collapse of donbass is ever more imminent... 😮

[TactfulWaggle]

One of the major reasons Ukraine hasn't withdrawn from Kursk to reinforce the Donbas, is because the brigades in Kursk aren't made for defense, but for mobile offense, it would make little difference in the Donbas

[waterfall]

Ukraine really should not have invaded Russia. It diverted too much manpower from Donbas front

Russia is hiring men from Africa and Central Asia, India and Nepal.
3k usd for a month is alot for people from these countries.
