It's a propaganda war as much as a military war. I suppose all wars are.
We really don't know how well or poorly things are going for Russia. The pentagon gave a 72 hour estimate of Kyiv falling, but it took far longer for US troops to take Bagdad. I could easily believe the 72 hour claim was known to be overly optimistic and made for propaganda purposes by America's own brass, knowing full well it would take many weeks, and it certainly assumed a "shock and awe" offensive which Russia is clearly not employing. US brass did predict a shock and awe offensive. No one, and I mean no one, has yet come forward with any substantive claim on what Putin's expectations were.
The alleged execution killings in this recent city is certainly a boon to Ukrainian PR efforts, regardless of its truthfulness. As I said, it's not just a military war.
Russia is also waging a full blown economic war against the US and the west in general. If they can bring down the dollar, they will. The ruble is still close to it's pre-war exchange rate with the dollar.

"Gold is a central bank game primarily. Silver is a public money game, and when the ruble proves itself as a gold currency the public will dump the dollar and the euro and they will run to silver. And i believe that the gold silver ratio will then quickly descend to 15 to 1." - Rafi Farber
