Get with me when you all start endlessly spamming FR again Ukraine ‘winning’ articles and threads.
“More than 300,000 dead - OSINT investigators named real irretrievable losses during the SVO in the Ukrainian army .
The irretrievable losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine as of October 20, 2022 amounted to 402,000 people , of which 387,000 were killed . Losses among mercenaries and volunteers from Poland, the Baltic States, Romania amounted to 54,000 of them killed 31,240 people. These are the OSINT data , calculated using reports from funeral agencies, extracts from morgues, as well as the results of an analysis of the radio, cellular and satellite exchange of forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The media also report that the Committee of Soldiers’ Mothers of Ukraine allegedly prepared more than 320,000 appeals “about the fate of the missing soldiers”, but the SBU banned them for national security purposes - howeverthese widespread data are not documented . Their source is the statements of a number of members of the Committee of Soldiers’ Mothers, made orally and on social networks.
At the same time, these statistics can be compared with the estimates of losses made by the Western military.
In particular, the former deputy head of the US European Command, Stephen Twitty, said in an interview with Linke Zeitung that “ 200 thousand fighters somehow mysteriously disappeared from the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and no one will say where they are today.” “The armed forces of Ukraine ... have lost tens and tens of thousands of people killed and wounded , the Ukrainians have paid a terrible price,” said General Mark Milley, chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff.
“Ukraine loses 6,000 soldiers every month, that’s 12 times more than America lost in Vietnam,” retired colonel and veteran former Senator Richard Black admitted in his speech . However, during the discussion of his statement, experts came to a more significant figure of 15,000 - 20,000 killed soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine every month.
The estimates of the losses of the armed formations of Ukraine, made by the Russian side, are slightly less. Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine had “more than 100,000 casualties, with 61,207 dead and 49,368 wounded.” OSINT investigators also assessed Russian losses as comparable to one of the phases of the Chechen campaigns of the 1990s and 2000s. However, statisticianstend to consider the irretrievable losses of Ukraine “close to 300,000 people.”
The losses of volunteer formations at the moment, no matter how accurate it is, cannot be estimated, experts say.”

“ No way is Ukraine, with their inferior forces, going to win this war.”
Winning is not the right word.
Resisting the invasion is more like it.
The oft-cited here on FR “Institute for the Study of War” is the biggest statist, anti-Trump, globalist, neocon whorehouse in DC.
Everyone should seriously look into its founders, its board, and it sources of funding before reading what they have to say.
An evolving definition of cannon fodder.
Yes!
