Tanks have averaged just below 3 per day (2.65) for the past 8 days, with about a 1000 casualties per day.
The Russians effort is now almost reduced to just terrorism with drones on civilians in cities, and no territorial gains worth mentioning for more than a year now.
It's been obvious for a while now, that the effort by Russia is futile. The only reason this shit continues is that Putin is a scared coward who fears for his life if he admits defeat. For him it's better to destroy an entire country of more than a 100 million citizens!

Yeah you really don't have to look at any other numbers than the size of Russian losses in infantry per day and the size of losses of Russian tanks per day to see how much of a mess Russia's military is.

If that many infantry are dying and you aren't losing any armored vehicles really... that means you totally fucked up your war plans at a very fundamental level. Those numbers are screaming at the Russian architects of this war that they threw away everything to fight the war with the wrong tools and tactics and all they are doing now is feeding their own people to a meat grinder out of denial and it will seal Russia's fate as a washed up regional isolated nation.

Let us all hope that Putin and Russia are forced to come to terms with this sooner rather than later, not for the sake of Russian soldiers but for the sake of Ukrainian defenders having to fight for their lives as they mow down wave after wave of Russian soldiers sent to die in Ukraine...
