I think it might be even more than 20, it is slow but they are gaining. I don't think their objective is to get whole of Ukraine but the eastern oblasts (which they do have most of already) and maybe a buffer zone. But that's my speculation.

NK men are only in Kursk / Russian region. I don't think there's any confirmed NK men fighting in Ukraine.

According to iiss [1], Russia does not have man power issues, unlike Ukraine.

> amazing job by the Ukrainians and the West destroying the Russian army twice and depleting all the old Soviet stock.

I only wish it wasn't at the cost of hundreds of thousand of Ukrainian men.
