Ukraine is turning the tide in a dramatic reversal that’s left the Kremlin stunned. After a string of gains in late 2024, Russia’s advances have now slowed to their lowest rate in five months. According to the Institute for the Study of War, Russia captured just 78 square miles in March 2025—down from 242 square miles in November 2024. Even worse, the UK’s Ministry of Defense puts that figure at only 55 square miles. The cost? Over 38,000 Russian casualties in March alone.
The numbers paint a grim picture for Vladimir Putin. With over 926,000 Russian soldiers lost since the war began in February 2022, a manpower crisis is brewing. Ukraine’s smart counterattacks in places like Luhansk and Toretsk are reclaiming ground, while relentless drone strikes cripple Russia’s oil infrastructure. At its current pace, analysts say it could take Russia 83 to 282 years to conquer the remaining 80% of Ukraine. Is Putin’s invasion entering its final act?

low-balling numbers: 200 soldier casualties per square mile, lets be generous and say he still has 175,000 square miles instead of 186,000… It is only going to cost him a mere 3,500,000 more casualties. Not soldiers, casualties.
He has 20% of a country at 926,000 casualties. Only the Death Corps of Kreig are excited at these statistics.

I never thought we'd actually use that metric in earnest. Sad state of affairs no matter which side you are on.
Now we see Putin attacking more and more civilian targets, as they can't break Ukraine on the battlefield. They're trying to break the national unity and affect the US support for Ukraine, as Trump & Musk has repeatedly laid blame on ukraine for "not stopping the meaningless war".
As Russia sees there are no repercussions, but rather an incitament for slaughtering civilians, then they do just that.
You’re proud of people sons Dying?? I don’t care what side you’re on that’s sick and disgusting.. you’re Chanel is sick
Mabey Putin should spend some of his own money that he stole from the Russian people.
With sanctions still in place on russia and Ukraines' technological advantage and help from the EU, it will be a long 2025 for russia.
dont play war or any games with eu!
Slava Ukraini!
Vladimir Putin is just as Donald Trump. Bankrupt.
Mendacity!
Sounds like bull to me
I don’t get it, if Russia is doing so bad why can’t Ukraine put them away in three years?
The baddie in the war in Ukraine, is Russia. The war is a rotten illegal invasion of Ukraine, so Russia is in a bad place regarding a motive for its action. Also, its bad deeds during the rotten illegal invasion of Ukraine. Lies, usurpation, enslavement, persecution, subjugation, denationalisations, are Russia's motives, and they are ALL bad motives. Ukraine's motives are, however, ALL CORRECT motives! Baddies loses, therefore Ukraine removes Russia from ALL illegally occupied areas of Ukraine is the call!!
Looks like Putin dose everything that Bible seas DONT
1. Don’t kill
2. Don’t steal
3. Don’t lie
4. Love your neighbor
5. Blessed are the peacemakers
6. Defend the rights of poor and needy
7. Woe to those who make unjust laws – Putin’s government has passed laws restricting free speech, banning protests, and silencing critics, creating an unjust legal system.
8. The Lord hates hands that shed innocent blood
Putin's leadership aligns with many biblical warnings, and history suggests that corrupt rulers do not last forever.
oil prices have crashed die to there being glut of oil now in the world..putin getting sod all for his oil..
This is still a war of attrition. Eventually Ukraine will run out of manpower before Russia. While Russia is being supplied with new troops on a daily basis by their allies. And they have way more money to recruit more cannon fodder around the world
Unless NATO actually send troops to resupply the front, otherwise i don't think Ukraine will hold on much longer. All it take is one mistake and whole thing will collapse. I think if Zelenskyy doesn't make a deal by the end of this year, his own people will turn against him. 3 years of war has pushed the citizens into near breaking point.

What are the credibility of your sources
Why is Ukraine losing territories everyday
And why is Russia not kicked out yet
I’m confused with the sensationalism but the map doesn’t lie
Putin's ideology : A means to an end. How much territory has Russia lost in Ukraine ?
The advance is slow but it is still an advance and not a retreat. We need to step up the help to Zelenskyy.
Putin should seek asylum soon!
If European nations "say" they will offer peace-keeping forces when there is a ceasefire, then, Putin will never do a cease-fire.
It looks like China will help to keep the Putin army moving forward.
Putin thinks he's fighting in WW2; Ukraine is fighting in 2025.
Look, everyone. There are people in this world who do not think the way we do.
Putin is doing something that is profitable for his thinking.
Not to mention that ukraine forced russia to fight a huge battle on russian territory of kursk….and i believe they are now advancing into belgorod
Putin's out of tanks.
Russain law says conscripts cannot fight in Ukraine.
Is ukraine still in Kursk?
If the war stops Putin is a goner.
AND THE PRESS INSIST IN SAYING PUTIN IS WINNING THE WAR…. THE SUPPOSED RUSSIAN SUPER POWER IS BEING DEFEATED BY A POOR COUNTRY LIKE UKRAINE , RUN BY AN ACTOR WHO WAN THE ELECTIONS AND ENDED UP BEING INVADED BY A NEIGHBORING SUPERPOWER , RUN BY A GENICIDE…… SO HOW COME ZELENSKI IS BEATING THE SHIT OUT OF PUTIN ? IT WAS INCREDIBLE , BUT IT'S TRUE……RUSSIA TURNED INTO A PAPER TIGER BY PUTIN THE MORON……
SLAVA UKRAINE !!!!

These videos are uplifting, but sadly the Russians are still advancing. They're likely to continue to do so. Ukraine is fighting valiantly. The West needs to step up with the war materials. Ukraine needs more of everything and they need better, more powerful, longer range weapons. The West has them. The West just isn't sending them.
6:58 it means bring in Chyna Soldiers (or warm bodies)
Cool
The more i see videos like this the more convinced i am russia is actually winning. Its been YEARS and i think ive heard 4 or 5 russian advancement videos, the rest are like this one, "russia is on its knees" bla bla.
Ukraine is doomed..smh
Putin needs a lot of men to police the population of Russia as well.
Putin the conqueror panic. How can that be?
Lol you guys are delusional.
