No word about Ukraine’s casualties. Guess there are none.
Tank Girl and the Ghost of Kyiv resurrected any casualties.
No, they’re fairly well documented.
The figures are not news on their own because beimg a civilian in a war with urban fighting and aerial bombardment tends to result in lots of deaths, and bears shit in the woods. Cause of death is more likely to create a news story.
Russian troop casualties on the other hand tell a story on their own. They’re the aggressors. They had all the numbers on their side. Again, the count is less newsworthy than the circumstance.
Also, the contrast between the Ukrainians collecting evidence and the Russians never xollecting it.
According to Russia they can give a precise figure for Ukrainian casualties despite not counting bodies at all, but they have only been able to post numbers of their own casualties twice in 8 months and the last time they did it they used BBC estimates.
The BBC estimates are based on counting obituaries and new graves in Russian towns, so obviously don’t include the thousands of unrecovered corpses in Ukrainian fields, the uncollected dead in Belorussian morgues, and the rank and file that went down on the Moskva.
