Why Is Russia's Mighty Military Failing?

Putin's commanders launched attacks on several fronts. The Russians seem not to be invested in the fight and suffer from poor morale.

Putin's commanders launched attacks on several fronts. The Russians seem not to be invested in the fight and suffer from poor morale.

Many Russians entered the battle unaware of where they were, their commanders arrogantly hoping they would take Kyiv within days after pouring down from Belarus.

It requires a roughly four to one advantage in numbers to take a city and Putin's plan to overrun well-defended Kyiv and other cities was based on shockingly poor intelligence of Ukrainian resolve and capability.
