    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?

      Each side is trying to wear down the other rather than make massive territorial gains as in the early days of the war.

        I used to look at that site quite often but can you explain where I am shoving my head up my ass on that image you posted.

        Shouldn’t: Total Temp occupied = (Occupied after + occupied before - liberated )?

          Nah it’s Occupied after = Total temporary occupied - liberated. At least approximately. Occupied before seems to be included in occupied after, that is, both numbers count Crimea and the “people’s republics”.

        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.
