  this war becomes whoever have number of solider wins. Russia keeps throwing low quality soldiers hoping they can kill as many before they die. Ukraine is doing good than russia but holy 100k estimate that's a lot.
  what a sad reality
context: Sadly that seems like a very conservative estimate for Ukrainian civilians. >
  
  Yeah there is likely more. Would also like to see the Ukrainian deaths compared to the Russian deaths and not deaths vs deaths and injured. >
  
  Casualties are both deaths and injuries, so the title is comparing apples to apples. >
  
  
  30,000 dead civilians
  
  This refers to dead and does not count the wounded. >
  
  Man I really didn't think Ukraine would be so close behind the Russians. Sad numbers but still have hope >
  
  It's kind of crazy that Putin, beloved by white supremacists, has been responsible for more deaths of white people than anyone since Hitler. >
  
  Eh, to them its the "right whites".
  Racism is always willing to make another 'out' group. >
  
  200k Russians dead wouldn't be the right whites for them. >
  
  The other guy was referencing how the majority of mobiks so far were drawn from ethnic minorities in Russia. >
  
  Don't forget the convicts and other "undesirables". >
  
  How many ukrainians abducted? >
  
  That is the real question.
  Abducted or worse, mass graves yet to be discovered. >
  
  The fact they discover so many mass graves already in Ukraine just by looking at freshly tossed soil says the real number is probably mindblowing. >
  
  Awhile back someone posted a link to some website (like liveleak or something) showing Russian soldiers rapeing or torturing Ukrainian soldiers. 
  It’s absolutely disgusting and pure evil what they are doing. I learned that the Russian army has a huge problem with rape and torture on their own soldiers and is even encouraged by the higher ups. 
  Edit: fixed to make a bit more sense. Sorry haven’t had much sleep >
  
  The massacre of Bucha was carried out only days after the start of the war and one of the units involved was issued a commendation to Guards status for there role in it, so encouraged is a bit of an understatement. >
  
  I know about the war crimes Russia is committing. I was more talking about the way the Russian soldiers beat and rape new recruits. I knew the Russian army has problems with abuse but I didn’t realise how bad it actually is. >
  
  Oh yeah, sorry I misread your last sentence. Widespread corruption, and the "dynamic" between contract, conscripts and now mobik where they beat/rape/extort anything beneath them is disgusting. >
  
  the wounded to killed ratio is also higher on the ukranian side due to better first aid kits and medevac and not getting left behind by your fellow mercenaries >
  
  This by a long shot.
  Ukraine is probably closer to a 3-1 ratio and russia might be 2-1 if they are lucky.
  Part of it is the weapons and tactics used as well. >
  
  It's even worse. Russia is likely at 1.2-1 and Ukraine is likely at 5-1. Russia doesn't have supplies for first aid and tells their soldiers not to help anyone until fully being done with the attack/defense. >
  
  It is painful to see so many soldiers and civilians killed because of Mad Vlad Putin's desire to resurrect bygone Soviet era expansionism.  
  Putin need to be brought to justice for causing so many sufferings and destructions to Ukraine. >
  
  It needs to go beyond him, he may not have long to live. >
  
  🤞 >
  
  This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 71%. (I'm a bot)
  
  
  Oslo - Russia has suffered 180,000 killed or wounded in Ukraine so far, while the figure for the Ukrainians is 100,000 military casualties and 30,000 dead civilians, according to estimates released Sunday by Norway's army chief.
  "Ukrainian losses are probably over 100,000 dead or wounded. In addition Ukraine has about 30,000 civilians who died in this terrible war," said the Norwegian general.
  In November, US army joint chiefs of staff chairman Mark Milley said the Russian army had suffered more than 100,000 dead or wounded, with a "Probably" similar toll on the Ukrainian side.

  That's over 3x the US loses in Vietnam. 
  The population of Russia was 143 million in 2021 the population of the US was 216 million by the end of the Vietnam War. So, this is even a more significant loss to Russia. >
  
  Yeah.  And peak Vietnam war pain for the US was about 7 years.  This hasn't even been 1. >
  
  Yeah. They are throwing a lot of men into a meat grinder when they are poorly equipped, poorly trained, and lack motivation.
