The Russian Armed Forces' illegal invasion of Ukraine is now in a state of collapse as hundreds and thousands of Russian soldiers, fighter pilots, and even now affecting Russian sailors who are fleeing not only the frontline but supporting roles behind the battlelines.

Ukrainian soldiers are taking advantage of this and staging the most audacious attacks right across the thousand-mile frontline, even pushing the Russians back and now recapturing land illegally taken when Putin ordered his illegal military operation against Ukraine at the end of February 2022.

With the delivery of Western superior firepower, the Ukraine Air Force equipment with American F16’s taking out everything the Russians put up in the sky from attack and supply helicopters, through to MiG-65’s.

Even though Ukraine does not have a Navy they have a an army of sea military drones that have been very effective in taking out Russian Frigates and even an aircraft carrier and successful attacks on Putin’s pride and joy The Kerch Bridge that connects illegally occupied Crimea with Russia, and they continue to patrol and hound the tattered Russian Navy.

Nothing is being taken for granted on Ukraine’s side but they have had permission from the British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and the Ministry of Defence to use British-French made superior Storm Shadow cruise missiles which have successfully penetrated Russian Air Defences and has knocked out oil and gas fields as well as the supply network of road and rail networks supplying the Russian Armed Forces illegally occupying eastern and southern Ukraine.

With the American Patriot Air Defense system protecting key major cities in Ukraine from Russian drones and missile attacks, which has seen countless civilians including children and women being killed with much condemnation from the international community of the deliberating targeting children and women.

Under the leadership of President Zelenskyy who vowed to see the war end and has agreed to peace talks with his much-distrusted counterpart President Putin is now seeing victory as his brave and courageous soldiers, pilots and those operating drones whether on land or at sea are seeing their tough strength over their Russian enemies is paying off.

Putin is still giving the tough-guy speeches and pushing more young Russian men to the frontline, which has turned into a meat grinder for them.

Further putting pressure on President Putin is the Russians protesting against his leadership and the illegal occupation of Ukraine, which they are now suffering themselves as their currency is worthless and inflation increasing levels of poverty in the country.

With President Trump issuing more sanctions on Russia for President Putin’s refusal for peace talks with President Zelenskyy and bringing the war and saving millions of lives of young men from the frontline and the civilian population.

When asked by a reporter about Putin’s defiance and saying further sanctions on Russia will not affect his country and President Trump’s response: “Let’s see in eight months,” too much laughter from the reporters and staff in the White House.

As Ukraine claims more victory and recaptures their rightful sovereign land it makes Putin look weaker and will not be able to demand the Ukrainians to lose their occupied territory in the eastern and southern part of Ukraine including Crimea.
