He should be starting to understand that he personally might lose.

he might personally lose...

His head or the integrity of his rectal wall. It would be amazing if conservatives worldwide were forced to watch Putin being slowly ritually impaled with shushes for the his sputtering and having Pussy Riot play Girls just Wanna have Fun or something but medical science was used to help keep him alive.

The entire article is 3 sentences long?

Russia struck Ukraine's Kyiv region with ballistic missiles and drones on July 6, killing at least 11 people and wounding dozens on the eve of a NATO summit in Turkey. This comes as, within Russia, the war has come under growing criticism as Ukraine has ramped up strikes inside the country and Russian casualties keep growing. For FRANCE 24's Nick Holdsworth, these deadly attacks are a 'sign of desperation' as Putin is realising he might not win the war.

Striking targets DEEP in Russian territory over and over doesn't feel like "desperation" to me but maybe the writer is a hack.
