    The progress is slow because Russia does not want to cause problems to civilians.

    When the Americans went into Iraq in 2004, they had 300,000 troops and it took them 3 weeks to get Baghdad and they leveled the whole country.

    Russia is not using anywhere close to that many troops and they have to worry about civilians.

    I do agree, suspending fighting day 2 was a bad idea, screw negotiations

    And I think they should hit harder Ukraine forces that are out in the open

    Russia can do more damage than this, but restraint has been ordered from the damn top 

    I understand making connections with some Ukrainians that can be friendly, but if it costs guys their lives then am sorry friendships can be built later

    Nobody throws with stones on the Russian tanks. But no one is there for a welcome. 8 years of fascist brainwash show traces. Remain cool and perform the operations without further stops. The price of security for the future is not for nothing. Civilians scold, fascists hunt and kill.

    Let these idiots lit something of weakness and losses. The result counts. No hypershown weapons with 3min to Moscow!

    No more weakness, nowhere in the world. Stop NATO terrorist or answer follows immediately. US help help with drones?
    Shoot them off! Drones are not victims and are not for propaganda! Says it was our airspace!

    Flies Iranian drones and staff! Use it to find and kill the enemy in Ukraine faster and kill!

    Have you ever commanded troops? Ever raged a war?. Tell me what part of that's happening is a "catastrophic failure" from a tactical position on the ground?.

    There is none, The Russians are doing okay.

    They have dropped the being nice BS and are now shelling everything regardless of people being there, they have shelled Khakrov without a remote concern of civilian death, they are making reasonable amount of gain considering the situation.

    Again Ukraine is shielded via big cities in the north, the russians cannot drive around them, they have to deal with these cities and if you've EVER done Urban fighting, you'd know is a slow and grueling affair. Doubly so when your enemy is decently armed.

    In the East they are tying down a major portions of Ukraines army without directly fighting it, that's a big tactical win, making those troops sit there and do very little.

    In the south they are advancing rapidly.

    Yes there have been some blunders, but nothing extremely terrible.

    Inaccurate map Khakrov and Sumy aren't under Russian control, Nor is Chenihiv

    They aren't controlling that border. They can bomb them when they touch Ukrainian land.

    They can also threaten to nuk warsaw for being part of the conflict abd involving Nato.

    Perhaps they need to air lift some troops to set up check points or just barricade the highways inbound. Monitor with drones. Any fuel/cargo trucks get seized further down the highway by helo troops. and taken to a holding area.

    Question I have of that map is even though Belarus was used to send Russian troops, why not have sent them at the far left of Belarus border to reach Kamin or Kovel and than send their forces to quickly block off Poland, Hungary and Romania from anymore transfer of equipment?

    That is a good question, but isn't one of the answers because western Ukraine is a hotbed of anti-Russian sentiment, and where most of the Maidanists and ultranationalists are from? If so, the reason for not blocking off the borders, something that really does need to happen, could be to limit casualties.

    Poland is being contained by belarus, remember with the migrants, Belarus forces are near kaliningrad

    Poland can send weapons but its forces are well tied up by Belarus and Kaliningrad, 11th army corps, belarus armed forces, and 1st GTA

    I suppose the MoD isn't very concerned about what is going on in western Ukraine at this moment but concentrating on the areas that matter most.

    The fact there are ammo, guns etc. entering from there doesn't really make things that worse if the bulk of the Ukraine army can't in practice receive it. Yet, surely they have intelligence personal gathering what/where/who is in there whose can work better if there is no fighting happening around.

    - rebels and Russians claim that there were 150,000 Ukrainian forces there
    - Russian MoD said that 59,300 were on the front lines
    - that leaves 90,000+ in support
    - apparently about a third each of this 90,000 are based around Kharkov and Mariupol, the two end anchors of this force
    - those areas will be hard to take

    NOTE: anyone else noticing that the English speaking bloggers reporting are all going to bed from exhaustion... or are they being shut down? News from that source is drying up.  

    The Donbass troops can keep the pressure on this front, and it's far better leaving those Ukrainian troops tied up there for now, gives Russian forces achancw to focus elsewhere, there will come a point when Ukrainian government will start bringing some of those troops back to areas under threat, now that these troops are in convoys going elsewhere they will be easier to hit and destroy.

    Where is the Russian airforce. Why are Ukrainian mig29s and su27s still active?

    If this is really going on no way Russia can fight nato conventionally.

    If Poland attacks Belarus and russian forces, then they are opening themselves up to being bombed back to stone age.

    It isn't right. It's all wrong. But Poland and Baltics shouldn't be involved but they are pushing for themselves to be involved. And ultimately, they open themselves up.

    Airmobile warfare does not realy work like that.
    An airmobile unit does not really have the combat power to hold an objective for more then a few days, and need stronger armoured units to relive them. They are tough as nails, well trained and versatile but also vulnerable due to lack of armoured vehicles.

    However im 100% sure that guys like SSO and 45th VDV have been infiltrated along the main MSRs since D-day -3 having OPs set up and delivering intel on what happens on the roads.
    And as you say there are drones overhead already, i'm almost sure of that as well. But of course this information is not shared until after the war.
