Crazy Things Russia is Doing in Ukraine

 I am watching this video about Ukrainian use of drones to block roads from use by Russian armor.

I do smell a strongly pro-Ukrainian bias but there is one component that really does suggest Russian desperation: using civilian vehicles to avoid loss of tanks.  Cars, vans, motorcycles, and golf carts.  

The motorcycles are quick and might evade a drone.  Golf carts and passenger vehicles are not so likely to evade a dropped grenade.  

I have read that Russia is refurbished museum tanks for service and many mothballed in the 1950s.  This change to unarmored vehicles makes loads of sense.   

For all the pro-Russian propaganda I was seeing from libertarians and "paleoconservatives" a few months back you might have expected Putin leading a victory parade in Kyiv by now.  I suspect by the time this war concludes, Russia will have so few operable tanks that repelling an invasion of NATO will be close to a field exercise.
