    This is such a lame excuse, the heaviest attrition I have seen so far (other than the attrition to Russian soldiers teeth) is to Russian tanks, APC stocks, Russian warm water navy, ammo dumps and oil depots.

    Imagine if 4 and a half years ago someone told you Russia was about to get into a stalemate war of attrition near current borders that would last over 4 years. The whole situation is an embarrassment for Russia at this stage.
