    Well the Russians are now deploying the TOS-1 which is a tank mounted system that fires Thermobaric rockets. They vaporize people and crush internal organs.

    Not a good development. They’re used against dug in troops and to clear buildings of fighters. They use oxygen from the surrounding air to create a high temp explosion.

    That sounds way worse that blowing a person to bits.

    Not good meaning they're a weapon that experts say are usually not deployed in the initial stages of a conflict. Sounds like Putin wants to end things as quickly as possible.

    Shows he's desperate. Good sign for Ukraine maybe.

    Putin hasn’t figured out that you can’t defeat a country that refuses to surrender

    Put had about $600 billion in foreign currency reserves before invading but he's reportedly burning $20 billion a day fighting and who knows how much money he can't access now that SWIFT stranding some of that money.

    Ukraine holding out longer is great all-around and also in their favor is that they don't have to win the war, just not lose it. Putin has to win no matter what.
