EXPOSED: Putin’s soldiers only have a 20-minute lifespan | Battle Plans

Vladimir Putin’s spring and summer offensives in Ukraine have turned into an utter disaster. Russia still has over 5,000km² of Donetsk left to capture, yet managed just 97km² despite suffering a record 39,000 casualties in a single month. At this rate of advance, taking the rest of the region will take Putin 14 years. Russian forces are losing soldiers faster than they can recruit, with raw recruits facing an average frontline lifespan of just 20 minutes. Former military intelligence planner Philip Ingram breaks down the tactical chaos unfolding across the Eastern Front.
