That has no basis whatsoever and reduces the credibility of the presenter
My blog suggests what the casualties are and they match cross referenced figures.
To put it simple - Starting manpower + recruitment - casualties = current strength.
When there is agreement on 3 figures the fourth - casualties, is derived.
That figure matches credible western estimates like Mediazona.
Russia has using much more artillery fabs etc and there has been clear evidence that Many Ukrainians are being forcibly recruited, plus Ukrainians are leaving fortified positions, logically all information on the internet points to much higher Western Ukrainian causualties. At some point t NATO will have to admit this was wrong gamble on thier part.
Most of the time, Russia used massive artillery bombardments and attacked areas that they softened. They also defended with the support of enormous use of the same kind of bombardment and drone attacks. From the start, it looks like they plan to kill as many as UKN forces and weaken them while avoiding casualties from their side. While there is nothing new with this aim, which almost every side in any war wants, it looks like the main aim of the Russians seems to be that only. Taking land appears to be a secondary aim. So, they are not pressing serious offences\ even when they could only to avoid casualties.
All N weapons in Ukraine were of soviet origin and were taken back by Russia after the USSR broke up. The US has none of those to give back. Dunno what junior high school the NYT journalists failed from to come up with such absurdities.
An interesting look at Russia's new Oreshnik missile
(Please hit Like and/or Subscribe when you watch his videos, because his content is quite good)
Multiple warheads each following different trajectories to the same target -- how is this newer and different from MIRV / MARV ?
Also, is the speculation that this is a Bulava SLBM derivative plausible?
Should we perhaps look toward developing something like Oreshnik?
Look at the advantages: A single SLBM with this capability could deliver more than twice the ordinance potential of a B-52 bomber without being vulnerabie to interception. This could be make SSGN very potent and effective.
Whitehouse is apparently authorizing more missiles to be used to strike into Russian territory
American JASSM, German Taurus
Macron of France is also about to authorize new military escalation, including French troops in Ukraine
Western media now saying that Zaluzhny (Zelensky's rival) was the mastermind of the Nord Stream destruction, and also wanted to destroy Turkish pipeline infrastructure as well.
This is after Zaluzhny has begun commenting that the West lacks the ground forces to defeat Russia in a war of attrition.
Top Russian General and 500 North Korean Soldiers 'Killed by British Storm Shadow Missiles' in Devastating Attack
A top Russian general, along with 500 North Korean soldiers, have allegedly been killed by British Storm Shadow missiles in a devastating attack.
The strike launched by Ukraine on November 20 wiped out Lt-Gen Valery Solodchuk and also resulted with 18 Putin officers reported lost, with a further 18 wounded, it has been claimed.
Earlier reports suggested that a Kim Jong-un general had also been left injured in the attack as he commanded troops backing Vladimir Putin's Ukraine invasion.
Whenever there has been a significant loss on the Russian side, there have been video evidence, satellite pic, UAV pics etc etc, if it surfaces within 24 hours of the attack it is true, otherwise it is BS. Similarly vice versa
Top NATO Official Calls on Business Leaders to Prepare for 'Wartime Scenario'
BRUSSELS, Nov 25 (Reuters) - A top NATO military official on Monday urged businesses to be prepared for a wartime scenario and adjust their production and distribution lines accordingly, in order to be less vulnerable to blackmail from countries such as Russia and China.
"If we can make sure that all crucial services and goods can be delivered no matter what, then that is a key part of our deterrence," the chair of NATO's military committee, Dutch Admiral Rob Bauer, said in Brussels.
Speaking at an event of the European Policy Centre think tank, he described deterrence as going far beyond military capability alone, since all available instruments could and would be used in war.
Seems some NATO strategists apparently feel that in light of Russia's new missile capability, it's better not to wait for them to potentially act, but to instead hit the Russians first:
NATO is Discussing the Possibility of Preemptive Strikes Against Russia — Bauer
NATO is discussing the possibility of preemptive precision strikes on the territory of Russia in the event of an armed conflict with the alliance countries. This was stated at a conference in Brussels by the head of the Military Committee of the bloc, Admiral Rob Bauer.
He called positive the fact that NATO has changed its attitude to the essence of the organization as a defense alliance, as well as the perception that it is necessary to "sit and wait for us to be attacked" and only then react.
"It is more competent not to wait, but to hit launchers in Russia in case Russia attacks us. A combination of precision strikes is needed that will disable the systems that are used to attack us, and we must strike first," Bauer said, quoted by Bloomberg.
