What ridiculous fiction. 200,000 dead Russians?

It's likely a lot more than 200,000 Russians killed in the war, and perhaps some 300,000 injured and put out of service.

The Russians are not about to leave behind their dead and injured, because the pictures would have a very devastating effect for their potential recruits and would be even more devastating if Russians saw so many casualties on TV and on the internet. Besides, the Russians still have a lot more bodies to throw into battle when they empty out their prison system and send them all to war. Russia's leaders don't care about those in their prison system, and they could save a lot of money if they didn't have to house and feed their prisoners. Prigo likes those kind of 'fighters'.

speaking of prigo

“Russia’s Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu is lying to President Vladimir Putin about “colossal” battlefield failures in Ukraine, Wagner Group boss Yevgeny Prigozhin said on Thursday, ramping up his criticism of the country’s military leadership.

Prigozhin made the remarks in an audio message posted via the press service of his company Concord. He was responding to a question from a Russian news outlet about why his claims about Ukrainian advances in the Zaporizhzhia region, as part of a counteroffensive, haven’t been reflected by the Russian Defense Ministry or the Kremlin.

The Wagner Group chief’s public feud with Russian officials within the Kremlin is nearing a pivotal moment, with his rhetoric evolving into defiance toward broader sections of the Russian establishment, according to the British Ministry of Defence (MoD)....”

You have been watching way too much NATO/Ukranian propaganda. Barely 500,000 total Russian troops have even been DEPLOYED, let alone casualties! Is it a 100 percent casualty rate you’re stating?

Then there would be nearly zero Russians on the battlefield. Who has been checkmating and holding back the Ukranian counteroffensive then? Ghosts?

How many Ukrainians have been killed?

Do you honestly believe the offensive is going well for them?
