Perhaps the most important lesson for Putin is the realization that he cannot rely on the military’s assessments of its readiness, forcing him to take a more direct role in overseeing strategic operations. Ultimately, the combination of strategic lessons and a battle-hardened force will make Russia more lethal on future battlefields.
An army of the undead will be unstoppable.
How reliable are these numbers tho. Hasnt the US and Ukraine been claiming massive Russian losses that made no sense the whole war?
The numbers come from the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense.
Ok so ya why would we believe them? They are incentivized to lie to make it look like theyre doing well so that the west will send them more weapons.
We wouldn’t. lol. I didn’t post that image cause I agree with it. I was making a joke.
Ohh ok sorry flew over my head
I’m sorry. Does that image say that the estimate of casualties in 2024 is from 2022?
I think that’s just leftover from before. This is the minusrus.com website. It’s the same numbers as that other orange and black infographic. All of these numbers come from the same source: UA MoD.

It’s wild how wide the estimate spread is. From 200k to this absurd 650k.
I guess we’ll just have to watch the battlefield to get a better sense of the reality.
