    Artillery shells. Ukraine still has less of them than Russia. Russia out fires Ukraine by a good margin. Until Ukraine can reach at least parity, the counter offensive will be slow and painful.

    Ukraine can’t and shouldn’t waste the lives of its soldiers. Russia has no problem doing so.

    Western countries are ramping up the production of shells, but it takes time. Until that happens, don’t expect Ukraine to liberate its territory.

        Perhaps English is his second language and Ukrain is how he spells it in his native language.

            Oh dang, I didn’t even see the final one. Not sure then. He has other e’s spread out through the text though so maybe just a weird affectation?

            Autocorrect probably got confused. I use two languages and autocorrect on my phone messes up the spelling sometimes for similarly spelt words.

        No idea why Ukraine is somehow auto changing to Ukrain. Embarrassing.

      Not just artillery shells, the Russians are far better equipped with anything air. The have way more and better planes and helicopters and way more AA. I’m just an armchair general but it’s insane to me that Russia can’t profit more from this.
