Russia has launched one of its largest aerial attacks on Ukraine, Kyiv’s foreign minister said on November 17, with drones and missiles targeting energy infrastructure and other civilian sites in cities across the country, prompting neighboring Poland to scramble fighter jets.
Am I wrong in thinking “Russia launches massive attack on Ukraine” is a headline I see weekly, after which I don’t hear about any gains by Russia?
Russian gains aren’t usually connected to these attacks at all.
I wouldn’t say it’s a very effective invasion tactic in that case.
Each side is trying to wear down the other rather than make massive territorial gains as in the early days of the war.

Okay, but that really doesn’t answer my question. I’m talking about week by week not everything after almost two years ago. Of course they have occupied more of Ukraine once they invaded.
I think the point is that you can recheck it weekly if you want to see how much it changed.
That will let me answer that question weeks from now. Which isn’t especially helpful.
