Surpassing 1 million people killed and wounded would be “a stunning and grizzly milestone,” according to a report by a prominent Washington think tank.
Russia will likely surpass 1 million casualties in its war on Ukraine this summer, according to one of the world’s leading think tanks, reflecting the staggering human toll of President Vladimir Putin’s assault on his neighbor.
Around 250,000 of these Russian soldiers have died, the Washington-based Center for Strategic and International Studies said in a report Tuesday.
Ukraine has also suffered heavy losses, with 400,000 casualties including between 60,000 and 100,000 killed, it said.
One thing Russia is good at is getting very large numbers of its citizens killed in its wars.
Sometimes they don’t even need wars! America got over a million killed because of a shitty pandemic response.
Tbf, that’s the case for a lot of countries, so Russia is not so far ahead, though it sure is!
I laughed at “Washington think tank”
Hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths all because of the power-hungry egos of an elite few (specifically Putin and his oligarchs, not the Ukrainian people defending themselves).
The first to call for these wars should be the first on the front lines. Fuckers.
Fertilizer for Sunflower fields.
Good for Ukraine here.
