Great to see the numbers are on again. 👍 😀
Apparently since it's gone on for months now, the Russians have decided that 1000+ personnel lost per day is the new normal!!

They're currently recruiting/pressganging as much, so they've clearly chosen war of attrition against Ukraine that just don't have the population to sustain it. I think the population ratio of Russia : Ukraine is about 4 : 1, and Russia keeps stealing people from allied countries as well.

Edit: corrected ratio to 2024 population

The population ratio between Russia and Ukraine is 3.4 : 1. Ukraine is obviously weaker the smaller country, but Russia is the agressor and they send their men in human wave attacks. Right now the casulties are very much in Ukraines favour.

You're right, I'm mixing Russias population with the US.

Worldometer figures put it at 3,8 : 1 though
