    1. These numbers are utter madness, a reminder that the Soviets fled Afghanistan after around 50,000 casulties (killed and wounded)

      I’m all for the war effort, but our intelligence services are dogshit, this figure is likely to be speculative at best and propaganda at worst.

      Reminder that casualties mean wounded and dead. Wounded can return to the front lines(depending on the injuries). Having said that, it is still huge

    4. Alcoholic inexperienced soldiers needn’t die, they should’ve gone to the Kremlin, would’ve lived longer

    5. Russia set the bar at nearly 9 million in WW2. They probably think 1.1 million over 3 years is okay

    6. Imagine how much good stuff you can do having 1.1 million people doing whatever you tell them for 4 years. But Putin tried to become remembered in books as a tzar.

      I’m more curious about Ukraine’s casualties. I suspect that the ratio will be “”close” (meaning within 5% of each other). We won’t ever really know, though. Definitely shades of World War I, but tracking casualties on the eastern front whether it would be World War I or World War II, has always been lacking. They will be finding bodies for decades.

    8. That’s a lot of men that won’t be getting women pregnant. Russia’s population decline is going to accelerate in the coming years.

      We have lots of that shit. Thanks to Ukraine for turning it into fertilizer

      Doesn’t Russia have an extremely aging population, with a massive gap in the workforce? I’m sure I read about it a few years back, how its population was a ticking time bomb, & there wasn’t enough people to fill in for those retiring, & thus less taxes & labour available, let alone funding for elderly care. Surely this war has worsened the issue catastrophically.

    11. 10% of World War 1 deaths (2.5% of WW1 casualties) and that involved dozens of countries dropping everything that they had to fight to the death.

    12. „The update, which draws on Ukrainian General Staff reporting…“

      So.. propaganda?

    13. I wonder how many the Ukrainians have lost, feels like it would of a similar size, considering what is happening on the front

    14. What’s 1.1m men compared to Putin remaining the don of the russian mafia state?

      Surely russians will agree it’s a price worth paying.

      Putin really stepped into some shit. He holds power because of an image of being a ’strongman‘ dictator. If he backs out of Ukraine he will be at risk of a coup. But continuing with this madness risks revolt.
