During the last 12 months the Russia has "advnced" so much that it controls about 0.3 % more of Ukraine's territory than it did those 12 monrhs ago. That's less than one third of a percent.
During the whole calendar year 2024 the Russia managed to conquer 0.7 % of Ukraine's total area.
0.7 % is not "advancing". The Russia is not advancing and hasn't advanced since spring 2022.
Why do reporters keep writing that the Russia is advancing when it factually doesn't?
Russia is “advancing” headlines since 3 years.
Also Russia, literally still has less territory then they had on the 3rd day of the war.
@FundMECFSResearch @Tuuktuuk I'm reminded of this quote from Wasp, by Eric Frank Russell: "For months now, we have been making triumphant retreats before a demoralised enemy who is advancing in utter disorder."
