They’re admitting to 10,000 KIA.
It’s probably at least double that, at least, but let’s use their numbers.
It took them a decade to lose 15,000 in afcrapistan.
You are discussing a nothingburger, a fake article.
Probably. Because there is no reason to believe Putin’s allied media would admit to the 100%.
Concur.
I know people here love to spout about fake news etc. But there is nothing fake about the hundreds photos and videos of all the blown out tanks in all the suburbs around Ukraine. Those photos are not staged in a studio (a la Capricorn One) or carefully edited propaganda a la TASS. A blown out tank means soldiers KIA, the Ukraine doesn’t give them a warning to evacuate any more than the Ruskies give warning to all the apartment residents that were blown to bits.
25k out of an invasion army of 100k is significant, there is no way getting around that. Sure you can shift more resources but then you leave yourself open elsewhere. And you can’t just conscript more soldiers into Kiev next week, they need months of training (and even then we see how well they perform).
