Oh, it is not the only indication. Russian tank and artillery stores nearing exhaustion, being so desperate as to slap ERA on a hitch Mount artillery piece, billions in confiscated Russian assets being sent to reimburse Ukraine, appealing to NKorea for military aid, their patsy no longer being a shoe-in for US president, etc... I honestly feel there's a light at the end of the tunnel atm.
