The Russian Defense Ministry gave its first official accounting of casualties in the war in Ukraine, saying late Wednesday that 498 soldiers had been killed and more than 1,500 wounded.
It also said that more than 2,800 Ukrainian troops had died in the fighting.
Ukraine’s military said more than 5,800 Russian troops have been killed in action. Kyiv hasn’t said how many of its own service members have died.
Neither the Russian nor Ukrainian figures could be verified independently.

So we don’t really know.
Yep, and how many of those Ukrainian Troops were civilians?
The real question is, ‘How many did the Ghost kill with an angry look over his morning newspaper detailing his aerial exploits?’
And for what?
There were reports that the Russians were bringing in portable crematoriums, so we may never know..................
Oh sure! Just like the Democrat’s count in the 2020 Presidential election.
Sure will trust those numbers, whatever they appear to be.
Russia, Democrats, China! Communists all

Deep-state: Its good to see white christian people killing each other again.
The Russians lie. The Ukrainians lie. Biden lies. The media lies. They all lie.
But there is one shining exception to that. Trump always tries to be honest with us. And that was one reason he had to go. The Deep State is not fond of the truth.
I rec’d this message from Ukraine citizen:
“Dear Friends, we live to see another day! Thank you for your prayers! The downtown of Kyiv was not hit but 5 regions of the city were shelled. The TV tower was hit last night. The residential area around it was damaged. I will share later more details of what destruction Russians sowed during the night.”
One more horrendous crime should be added to the list for the future tribunal - after taking over the city of Kherson Russian aggressors announced that they would retaliate any civilians resistance - shoot 30 civilians for every shot made by the territorial defense (civilian resistance units).
When we read this we didn’t want to believe it. We wanted to think that maybe it’s fake news, an exaggeration. But we saw a video made (by a reliable person) of a large number of civilians shot in one place in a park. This reminds me of what we read about fascists doing in the second world war. Now Russian aggressors are doing the same!
Kyiv, Kharkiv, Sumy, Kherson, Zhitomir (big cities), and many small towns and villages have been brutally bombed.
please continue to pray”
Never before has the Russian Ministry of Defense ever released casualty figures while a conflict is in progress. Such information will be used by domestic opponents to emotionally fan political opposition. This release suggests that Putin has lost support within the highest echelons of the Russian military.
The Battle of Leningrad all over again..........................
Also, the numbers must be X10 higher................
Which were mostly made up figures............
All media involved including the Russians, the Ukrainian and our western media are completely corrupt so it is very hard to determine if any reports coming out about this conflict are real.
Watching the death and destruction by Russian military on TV now. Won’t be long till they start raping the women and children.
FR Putinistas must be getting excited.
Wait for me, and I’ll return
Only wait very hard
Wait when you are filled with sorrow…
Wait in the sweltering heat
Wait when the others have stopped waiting,
Forgetting their yesterdays.
Wait even when from afar no letters come to you
Wait even when others are tired of waiting…
And when friends sit around the fire,
Drinking to my memory,
Wait, and do not hurry to drink to my memory too.
Wait. For I’ll return,defying every death.
And let those who do not wait say that I was lucky.
They will never understand that in the midst of death,
You with you waiting saved me.
Only you and I know how I survived.
It’s because you waited, as no one else did.
-Konstantin Simonov
(You might remember it from ‘The World at War’)
Russians were bringing in portable crematoriums
So the crematoriums must be so backed up that they had to admit to the bodies that couldn’t be burned in time.
