Russia has exhausted its combat capabilities in Ukraine

Malcontent News has been one of the best sources I've found for the war in Ukraine.

"The British Ministry of Intelligence and the ISW assessed that Russian forces had exhausted their combat strength, validating our conclusion from August 19."

Ultimately Russia has destroyed much of their ability to war a conventional offensive ground war. I suspect they will take a decade to rebuild their conventional forces. Their best offensive weapon will be their ability to cut energy supplies. However, Europe has been securing alternate sources which leaves Russia quickly losing their ability to influence events on the world stage without the help or allies.
