The Russian Casualties in Ukraine: Update​

The Russian military is suffering heavy casualties on the ground. Most of the Russian fatalities are taking place around the towns of Bakhmut and Avdiivka in the Donbas. Moscow has been trying to capture both since the summer but has failed to achieve anything more than advancing a few miles and capturing some small settlements on the outskirts of the cities.
But the cost for these “successes” has been truly horrific.

The Russian forces are losing an average of 500 men killed every day, with many more wounded. Moscow is drawing from its recently mobilized reservists and Wagner Group mercenaries to support the offensive operations in the area. For the Russian leadership, these are cheap, expendable troops, especially Wagner Group’s former convicts.

Overall, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense claimed that as of Friday, Ukrainian forces have killed approximately 100,950 Russian troops (and wounded approximately twice to thrice that number), destroyed 283 fighter, attack, bomber, and transport jets, 267 attack and transport helicopters, 3,005 tanks, 1,984 artillery pieces, 5,986 armored personnel carriers and infantry fighting vehicles, 414 Multiple Launch Rocket Systems (MLRS), 16 boats and cutters, 4,622 vehicles and fuel tanks, 211 anti-aircraft batteries, 1,698 tactical unmanned aerial systems, 178 special equipment platforms, such as bridging vehicles, and four mobile Iskander ballistic missile systems, and 653 cruise missiles shot down by the Ukrainian air defenses.


All these losses in a war which in no way could make the lives of the Russian people any better.

Who thinks this is to make the lives of the Russian people better? It is all about Geo-politics, and Putin is winning.
 
Unfortunately for the US propagandists, they have burnt their bridges by exaggerating their successes.

Or, if there's any truth in the claim then Russia sees the fight worth the sacrifice.
 
Those are rookie numbers....Even if they are true.....Some perspective is in order.

In four years of war, the Soviet Union's average casualties rate was 7556 soldiers and 9110 civilians per day.

World War 2 Casualties.
And the Russians never won a battle against the Germans until the western allies landed in Sicily and Hitler began withdrawing troops from the east. Despite the fact that the US "By the end of June 1944 the United States had sent to the Soviets under lend-lease more than 11,000 planes; over 6,000 tanks and tank destroyers; and 300,000 trucks and other military vehicles" the Red army still couldn't fight its way out of a paper bag, and at the end of the war, despite having been rescued by the western allies, Russia reneged on all its promise and invaded Europe.

And? :dunno:

Saying it's about geo politics is saying nothing. What are the specific goals? And saying Putin is winning is saying nothing unless you can say what goals he is making progress towards.
 
How about keeping Ukraine out of NATO?
There was no chance of Ukraine joining NATO before this war, but now there can be no peace without it. Just as no one should have believed Hitler when he said only wanted Sudetenland because there were ethnic Germans living there, no one will believe in any peace agreement with Russia today unless Ukraine is part of NATO. NATO was created as a response to Russia's invasion of Europe after WWII, and this invasion of Ukraine makes Ukraine's membership in NATO inevitable.
 
In WWII, the total Russian losses were mostly civilians murdered by the Nazis, but no Russian civilians are under attack now and 500 dead Russian soldiers a week is nearly 1% of the Russian forces in Ukraine dying every day. This is clearly unsustainable.

Whether the OP is deliberately Fake or just misinformed I do not know .

The Ukey figure is around 200 000 minimum dead with that figure and possibly many more maimed and wounded

The Russian figure is probably around 30 000.

What the west does not know is that the Russians avoid direct ground fighting whenever possible ..Their artillery power is so superior that they simply work from better defended positions and obliterate the Ukey forces with impunity from distance .

The original Ukey front line was around 200 000 and that has all but been wiped out .
This is why the US guys behind the Ukey forces have been so desperate to bring in mercenaries from anywhere and they include ISIS personnel as well as NATO forces . Ukey land itself has essentially run out of people which is why they called up women and older men .
A complete mismatch and farce .
Truth will out .

You are one clueless nitwit. .. :cuckoo:

9 out of 10 German soldiers were either killed or captured during WWll fighting the Russians on the Eastern front.
 
Stop giving Ukraine weapons.
We're just getting more Ukrainians killed, more of their country destroyed, and making our Oligarchs richer as they steal more of our money while they enjoy watching the damage being done in this proxy war they've spent years trying to start

Ask your Putin to pull back troops from a neighbouring country.

Only in your fantasies. The Red army never won a single battle against the Germans in WWII until the western allies landed in Sicily and Hitler began withdrawing troops from the east to bolster the defenses of Italy. This happened during the battle of Kursk, Moron, in which Russian losses were several times the German losses but resulted in a Russian victory anyway because Hitler began withdrawing German troops in the middle of the battle because of the allied landing in Sicily.

What followed the German withdrawal was a Russian occupation of eastern Europe that was every bit as savage as the German occupation had been.
