Actually Ukraine is plastering Russian troop concentrations just about as fast as Russia can send troops to the frontlines.  That's probably why I believe the last of the Russian elite unit reserves were committed near Robotyne?

With the caveat that Human Life is precious; no, Russia can't afford to lose healthy males.  "8.5 inhabitants per square kilometre (22 inhabitants/sq mi). As of 2020"  Also it's birthrate is dropping like a rock (between young people fleeing the country or getting killed in Ukraine).  "The population density in Ukraine is 63 per Km2 (164 people per mi2)." which is about 8x as much.  Also, Russia is invading Ukraine, so has to pull out resources (vs just reposition them).

I don't know where you get your info, but August was Russia's lowest casualty month since the start of the SMO, and September is looking to be in the same range. Since the Ukrainian counter-offensive started, casualties are running roughly 10-1 in Russia's favor.

Maybe meatwave attacks along a broad entrenched/mined front without air support is considered suicide for a reason. Russia is glad to trade a K for a K. That's 1 square kilometer for 1,000 Ukrainians.

If you valued the lives of your troops, you would have called this offensive off long ago and just dug in. But between this and Bakhmut, I think Zelensky wants to kill as many of his troops as possible. [/quote]

We know where you get your information from, Kremlin propaganda-bot.

Russia's lowest casualty month since the start of the SMO?
10-1 in Russia's favor?

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

How about trying more credible fictions[/quote]

Here's the best public count of Russian casualties: [url]https://en.zona.media/article/2022/05/11/casualties_eng[/url]
They have a weekly graph about a third of the way down the page, which shows a steep decline over the past few months. There were roughly 1,500 Russian KIA from the start of the offensive through the last update.

No one will do similar quality counts on Ukraine, because they don't want to get blown up. That leaves us using lesser sources. Shoigu for instance claims 66,000 Ukrainians, which is probably on the high side. A solider with the 47th posted they were suffering 13 KIA a day, which puts them at over 1,100 for the duration of the offensive. That's just one brigade. If those numbers scale to other Ukrainian brigades, then Shoigu's number is actually on the low side.

So we get 66,000/1,500 or roughly 44-1, well above the 10-1. If you have a better source for UA loses, feel free to plug it in instead. The English language media generally views UA loses as taboo, so its hard to find good sources.[/quote]

Shoigu also claims that every Ukrainian missile and drone is intercepted. Then pictures come out showing that he really meant intercepted by ship hulls.[/quote]

So what's your number for UA KIA?[/quote]
