Nice try.

Let me post up a bit of hard truth for some of you as the conflict heads into the coming Winter months....

“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 mortuaries, 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......”

That’s not new to the Russian army. I watched a documentary about the Russian army decades ago and they were using the same cloths. Sock tech eludes Ivan.

That is a wacky KIA to total casualties ratio. 38,700 would be a lot more believable.

And you know this how?

Denial is healthy and all but being able to refute something is even better medicine than simply spouting “I don’t believe it” so as to ease your mind and help you sleep better at nights....

Muddy weather is to be avoided. The Russians have a history of fighting in Winter. No big deal.

Even a Ukie General called it months ago:

‘Ukrainian General estimates Kiev’s losses at hundreds of thousands since Feb’
https://tass.com/politics/1501881

“War and Regrets in Ukraine - at least 400,000 Ukrainian battlefield casualties including 100,000 soldiers killed in action”

common sense goes a long way to cutting thru the nonsense

387,000 defies common sense, so it’s not believable

no matter how many times on how many threads you post it, it’s still a lie
