I got about 20 tabs open and different outlets are reporting Ukrainians fighting back best they can. Ukraine isn't rolling over, but Russia will eventually pound them which is sad.

We will know how things stand in the next 24 hours or so, but generally, the overall predictions by defence analysts have borne out pretty accurately. The Russians have used their artillery, cruise missile, and air capabilities to smack anything left out in the open with Ukraine being pretty powerless to stop it.

It will be interesting to see how Ukrainian ground forces manage to stand, but without airpower or capable anti-air assets, I don't see how long that will last.
