Russian death toll rises to 17,000, Kyiv claims, as Putin's forces fail to make any 'significant' progress due to a 'lack of momentum and morale'

Vladimir Putin's stalling invasion of Ukraine is suffering new blows as the Russian death toll rises to 17,000 without seizing any new territories, Kyiv has said.

The UK's Ministry of Defence said today there has been 'no significant change to Russian forces' dispositions in the country' over the last 24 hours, and Russia is still yet to capture any major city after a month of fighting.

They said 'ongoing logistical shortages have been compounded by a continued lack of momentum and morale against the Russian military, and aggressive fighting by the Ukrainians'.

I suspect this is a setup of some sort. Vlad is getting rid of some baggage here, not trying to “win.”

Pretty soon, St. Vladimir of Putin will have to give an address similar Emperor Hirohito at the end of WWII (paraphrased): “Events have not exactly transpired to our advantage.”

They never planned to do that. Putin detailed his goals in a speech just before invasion and has completed most of them.

"But now the war has lasted for nearly four years. Despite the best that has been done by everyone– the gallant fighting of the military and naval forces, the diligence and assiduity of our servants of the state and the devoted service of our 100 million people – the war situation has developed not necessarily to Japan’s advantage, while the general trends of the world have all turned against her interest."

“Kyiv has said”

And if you can’t trust Ukraine’s accounting, what can you trust in this crazy world of ours?!!!

Does Ukraine track and post civilian deaths?

For the first couple weeks their death toll was under 500.

For the last couple weeks I have not heard any numbers at all.

Its easy enough to pay attention to what Putin said he was going to do, instead of following MSM crap or making blind assumptions.

Russia has no desire to run western Ukraine. They were asked to come assist eastern Ukraine provinces with genocide.
14000 have been killed by the Ukraine army in the last 8 years with mostly bombing.
The request for their help was a UN approved approach.

If you like I can try to find the speech.

It’s back to zero deaths; the previously killed have revived and re-enlisted to keep fighting for Z.

They’ve taken over Mariupol. Your info is incorrect, as usual.

They were asked? Why the Passive Voice?

Who asked?

To help "with genocide?!" Huh?!

The request for their help was a UN approved approach.

I guess that this "request" according to a "UN-approved" approach then gives Russia carte blanche to simply invade Ukraine, doesn't it? Makes everything nice and legal, right?

Z raised them from the dead, turned water into vodka, then fed the entire nation with one Snickers bar.

Did you miss the "sarcasm" tag I put there?

But to be honest, I am sorry for the deaths of so many young Russian recruits who probably don't know any better.

The Russians are not in the Ukraine to capture territory. They are there to wipe out the NWO syndicate that has a stranglehold on the country.

Well dam, they should have just bombed them into rubble, then rolled in and declared liberation among the rotting bodies…Raqqa style
