So, a few things "Russian SMO" means "Russian Special Military Operation". Avoid initialism unless it is defined or very well understood.
Secondly, what a bunch of bull shit. The fact is that the SMO ground to a halt after failing to achieve any of its goals within Ukraine (of which ALL of the map shows in orange or red being Ukraine and not a part of Russia) because the Russian occupiers have almost run out of troops and no way to get them to the front anyway save for horses and mules. They have not take Pokrovsk or Kupyansk, losing tens of thousands of troops trying, and failing, to take these key, albeit mostly obliterated Ukrainian cities. The Russians are now losing more troops than they can recruit...that is buy... since the Russian army is now the largest mercenary army in the world. Since the Russian oil infrastructure has been smashed the government can longer pay the enormous bonuses to buy more troops. They declare, if Abraham is accurate, simply "declared victory" in the midst of their defeat at the lines they occupy.
