That doesn't seem right. In 2023 they actually lost more ground than they gained. At least that was the situation until this september, but i don't think there where significant developments in the last 2 months.
The numbers are so small, it's not an argument worth having. What is certainly true is that Russia is sending wave upon wave of men to their death against Ukrainian defences. All for very little gain. Russia lost more people in November than any month so far in this conflict, and any month during Afghanistan. The numbers are horrific. Putin has just ordered another round of drafting, and they were scraping the barrel last time.
