    Yeah, these are estimates based on actual evidence, as opposed to made up numbers. It’s not exhaustive, but it gives a realistic idea of the scale of casualties. Meanwhile, there is zero evidence for any kinds of meat waves. There’s not a single video of that happening from the past 3 years of the war. It’s a narrative that only the most gullible people could believe. The reality is that this is a war of attrition where vast majority of casualties come from artillery and Russia enjoys a 10x artillery advantage.

      There was a video posted literally a week ago of north koreans ‘rushing’ a Ukrainian stronghold and getting demolished out in the open. We have multiple, as in more than a dozen, statements by Russian personell, that their squads are suffering up to 90% losses. Bakhmut alone cost over 30.000 Russian lives.

        There’s been claims of north Koreans captured here, spotted attacking there, giving an interview in Russian uniform, and yet not a single piece of evidence has ever been provided. If the state department said tomorrow that Bigfoot had been spotted in Donbas and was fighting for Russia half of you would be here repeating it as incontrovertible fact since there’s all that evidence.

        Bakhmut alone cost over 30.000 Russian lives.

        Bakhmut was likely the costliest battle of the war for Russia, however as you look at the casualties it’s clear they’ve been steadily going down https://en.zona.media/article/2022/05/20/casualties_eng-trl
