I sincerely want to believe that all this will end soon and peace will finally reign .
Peace will not come soon. Russia does not want to admit its defeat in Ukraine and will throw more and more new forces in people and equipment. According to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the following have been destroyed to date:
- 35,250 Russian soldiers and officers,
- 1567 tanks,
- 3704 armored vehicles,
- 217 aircraft,
- 185 helicopters,
- 778 artillery systems,
- 243 multiple launch rocket systems,
- 102 air defense systems,
- 2589 automotive equipment,
- 636 UAVs,
- 14 ships and boats, etc.
At the front, there are already signs that Russia is running out of steam. Any old equipment is already being depreserved. The old Soviet T-62 tanks were used, which dig into the ground up to the very tower and are used as fortified firing points. Mobilized people have already begun to issue old three-rulers of the 1898 model. But Russia will still be able to fight for some time. Unless, of course, something unforeseen happens to Putin or a big internal conflict in Russia itself.
