Gravitas: Have 'muddy roads' slowed Russian troops?

The onset of spring & melting snow is reportedly slowing the Russian military down. The west claims Russian tanks are getting stuck in muddy roads & are unable to move forward. Is their merit to these claims? Palki Sharma gets you a report.

I am shocked, all the media have moved from being Covid experts to military analysts in few days 😳

[heatherfavier]

It's so sad that no one can help them without causing world war

[tonyks]

All the journalists suddenly became military experts and stratigists.. Bravo!

You just have to laugh at Russian incompetence. They blew up all of 3/4g towers then they couldn’t use their crypto phone for secure communications, they then started using local SIM cards, got hacked, location of their general was compromised who then was drone killed.

"As of today, the thaw in ukraine is only muddying... the narrative"
Wow such great line I totally didn't see that coming 🤣🤣🤣

Having served in soviet army, I can prove you, they haven’t considered it as a problem. Like in 1992 when Russia has invaded Chechnia, then MOD Gratchev told, “I will take Chechnia with one regiment in half day” it took 4 years and TOTAL & so called carpet bombardment of Chechnia to win that war.

Dust and mud can humble, sabotage and wreck havoc even to the most mightiest iron. To mud, dust and mother nature my most sincerest respects and regards.

The Russian administration closed its southern airports f.i. in Belgorod and Rostov at the beginning of the invasion. They said they were going to reopen them by March 2. These airports are still closed today.

That is the trails of the world. To God be the Glory.

The Ukraine recognized as one of the bread baskets of the world due to deep biologically active, nutrient rich soils. Who knew such life giving landscapes does not like war either.

God guide Ukraine🙏🙏🙏 hold on the angels are with you. Keep praying too! 🙏

[educaspe]

i admire Ukraine not surrendering despite being in an unfair situation,
Just the civilians suffers more in this conflict

[MrPurge]

Well why is Russia complaining? They should not have gone in there in the first place.

I'm about to speak from ignorance and without fact checking, but the Russian tanks I saw in this video were T-72B3 and those were not the ones stuck in mud... The ones stuck were T-64BV and it seems to me that is the case because of the shape of the turrets and hulls and because Russia doesn't use Kontakt-1 ERA any more, nor does Ukraine, but ukranian Nozh ERA can be placed on the same housing as Kontackt-1... Any how, I agree there is a LOT of misinformation flooding both sides.

This is why having good roads along our borders is not a good idea. Better to keep it rough, undeveloped and hard for adversaries to penetrate through.

[NYJGreatness]

Miss "know-it-all" is not happy as her Russian buddies are having a tough time. Let's not forget how much she laughed when she thought the US intelligence was lying about Russia's attack on Ukraine.

[davidbatin]

The longer this battle goes on the harder it will be for the Russians to make grounds. The weather, lack of rations & ammo will cause low moral for the troops. All Ukraine troops need to do is hunker down & make it long drawn out fight & will eventually win.

[ratbe]

Those muddy roads are widespread in Russia as well. So though Russians are slowed by those roads, so will any other foreign NATO country that comes into Ukraine as well, and in fact the Russians have the advantage of performing on "home soil" so to speak.

[sarajane]

I literally had no idea tanks could get stuck in mud, I always thought those caterpillar tracks roll over anything.
