This prediction is correct for pre-war Ukraine. We lost Crimea without a fight. Now we have 8 years of experience and will to fight, because everyone lost somebody they know. However, Ukrainian army is poorly equipped. 200 thousand reservists cannot join Ukrainian army because of lack of equipment. We are trying to squeeze the last few drops from our reserves.
We badly need new trucks. I have a driver (I'm lieutenant), but have no truck, because my truck was used in Chornobyl, so it's not operable now because of 30 years of out of service at conservation. If I have a truck, I can swap my cabin from Chornobyl truck to new truck and create a working communication station, but I cannot find a cheap truck to buy.
If you have a barely working truck, please, sent it to Ukraine, Rivne, Ukrainian Army, 55 OPZ, 1 battalion.

Not sure if this is serious, but how would a private individual send a truck? I have friends trying to transport supplies to Ukraine and they are finding it is quite difficult to make deliveries.

I have no idea. Before the war, cars from the USA were delivered by sea in shipping containers to Odessa. Now, Odessa in blocked by Russians, so cargo must be shipped to EU first, and then transported to Ukraine via Poland. There are some Ukrainian firms, which are providing logistic. I can also ask my mentor from Britain to help with delivery. I put my email into profile details, if you have a truck for me, because I badly need a truck. I'm OK with the truck from Chornobyl, because we are living close to Chornobyl anyway, but we cannot repair it because of lack of parts and because the main quarters were left due to risk of missile strike. We are all in the fields now.

2) Nukes.
3) Even though the Russian military appears increasingly incompetent, they are still capable of creating immense damage and destruction.
