Over 6,000 Russian troops killed in six-day period bringing death toll to nearly 500K since war began

An estimated 1,260 Russian troops were killed on the battlefield Saturday – the sixth straight day Russia lost over 1,000 men to fighting, according to new estimates.

The slaughter brings the total Russian deaths to nearly 500,000 troops since Vladimir Putin launched his full-scale invasion on Ukraine more than two years ago.

The figures from the general staff of Ukraine’s Armed Forces were validated by the United Kingdom’s Ministry of Defense in a statement Saturday.

With a depleted fighting force, Russia has started actively recruiting women for the war, The New York Times reported, even extending the efforts into prisons.

  1. What do you think is going to happen, they don’t know how to fight, that haven’t been in a war since WWII and they are using sub-par equipment and training and men. Hence why they use WWII tactics like trenches which help with certain things but is your tomb nonetheless since you are crowded together with nowhere to go since their trenches are small and go nowhere.

    2. In December 1979, The Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, aiming to bolster the newly established communist regime and suppress the Mujahideen rebellion against the government.
      The Soviet–Afghan War was a protracted armed conflict fought in the Soviet-controlled Democratic Republic of Afghanistan (DRA) from 1979 to 1989.
      In the brutal nine-year conflict, an estimated one million civilians were killed, as well as 90,000 Mujahideen fighters, 18,000 Afghan troops, and 14,500 Soviet soldiers.
      Jack, do a little research before you go flappin them there gums……

  2. The Soviet Union lost more than 20 million killed or missing during WWII. The highest casualties of any nation. Nothing new in 2024.
