For months, Vladimir Putin has been constructing an elaborate narrative claiming Russia is on the verge of victory in Ukraine. But the reality on the ground tells a dramatically different story. This comprehensive documentary examines the actual state of the Russia-Ukraine war as of December 2025, exposing the logistics crisis, manpower shortages, and strategic failures that are undermining Russia's military campaign.
We analyze the battles for Pokrovsk, Kupiansk, and other key cities, examine Russia's failing railway system and supply chains, and explore why Russia's 800-mile frontline is becoming unsustainable. With updated information through December 16, 2025, this documentary reveals how Ukraine's defenses are holding—and in some cases, pushing back—against Russian forces that are exhausted, underequipped, and overstretched.
