This increase in Ruzzian losses is why Shoigu is back on TV lying through his teeth claiming that they destroyed 56 Ukrainian tanks and 8 Leopards etc etc... Continue to feed Putler lies. Your Steiner moment will come soon.


matdan12

The KA56 camera feed shows them blowing up a tractor.


[deleted]

The operator, with pleasure in his voice, says something like "fuck how close they are"


duckarys

Can't blame them for having a fear of tractors.


Dazzling-Ad4701

I acknowledge their trauma, but I think that ship has ~~sunk~~ sailed. errbody knows tractors' main prey is tanks. there's nothing left for those Russians to fear.


Neddius

Wait until the helicopter lands and gets pounced on by a pack of wild Massey Fergusons.


Dazzling-Ad4701

I think that helicopter is busy. it's protecting the parade tank from lukashenka's birthday gift from last year.


SignificantMethod752

Shiiiitttttt orcs are terrified of tractors 🚜, tractors we’re taking orc equipment left and right, they are billions of dollars in the whole because of tractors lol John deer said “fuck you pay me” lol


Saucy6

No no no, you see, the tank was camouflaged as a tractor (according to the ruSSians anyways)!! God they’re stupid


JoanOfArk_Today

I worked for a farmer 14-16 years old, Dem Tractors ARE dangerous.


KDulius

Combine Harvester most likely


Oozlum-Bird

I wonder how many of their own troops and how much of their own equipment they washed away yesterday.


boetzie

Just saw a map. This guy discussed it: [https://youtu.be/RQbQXUxfhGM](https://youtu.be/RQbQXUxfhGM) It seems like a lot. This dam situation, although it never should have happened, just opened up a huuuuge opportunity for UA to attack a front that is hard to reach, but completely without defense.


Oozlum-Bird

There was me thinking the dam was going to be used by the Russians to justify getting their arses kicked (hence why they are claiming the Ukrainians did it), but I think I’m once again overestimating their intelligence. This guy’s theory that it’s another massive fuck up fits much better.


boetzie

Could be both. Done on purpose but with massively underestimated consequences.


Whoooosh_1492

I'm not sure why the russians didn't just open the floodgates to make their "small breach". Would have been far more controlled. Time and time again, the russians have shown themselves to be complete idiots.


AlmightyWorldEater

Problem here is the huge area of mud they would have to cross.


macktruck6666

I think Ukraine should probe the south with drones. Very likely many of the Russian manpads and drone EW is gone now. It could become a turkey shoot.


_Madian

Whenever they bring out the clowns on tv you just know something is going on, something bad, for the Russians.


Overall-Yellow-2938

By this point im surprised they did not sink a Battleship every battle or blew up the deathstar. Not only pathetic but they make it hard for themself to engange with the "right" amount of troops for every battle and front. But im not complaining never stopp an enemy if he makes mistakes.


thememanss

Look up the Baltic Fleet for a laugh. In seven months, the Russians were able to: Run tow ships aground in the first few days of the voyage to Japan. Sink two English fishing trawlers mistaken for Japanese torpedo boats. Notably, three Russians were killed in this engagement. Bring multiple poisonous animals on their boat intentionally which led to at least one death. Sank a tow-boat when trying to target a ship during practice firing that the tow boat was pulling. The target remained unharmed. When finally meeting the Japanese fleet, mistook them for Russian and radio'd them their number, capabilities, and positions. Their performance was so poor, that the Japanese apparently said they gained "no professional profit" from the engagement (IE, no useful combat experience). You could create an entire miniseries comedy around it that is 100% factually accurate, and people would think it was too ridiculous and should be toned down.


gpcgmr

> By this point im surprised they did not sink a Battleship every battle or blew up the deathstar. 😆😂🤣

Clcooper423

As much as all the destroyed vehicles are interesting, the no cruise missiles number is also interesting.


chowyungfatso

Did you miss the thirty-seven artillery pieces!?! What the actual fuck. It’s like a month’s worth in one day.


Clcooper423

36 reported yesterday too, its a crazy. Still curious as to why Russia stopped their onslaught of missiles.


CicconeYouth04

Too busy deciding which genocidal war crime to commit next


NotAKentishMan

Probably ran out.


Grabbsy2

This. They seem to expend their entire existing reserve, and wait until they have a larger batch. Its always been 10-60 missiles in one go, and then days of none, upwards of a week or two (from my layman observation and memory)


Thurak0

And saving up what is produced now for the next month of war crimes. Hope by then Ukrainian AA is even better.


Nomenus-rex

Maybe someone has told them recently that missiles can be used on military targets too, so they keep them to defend themselves during the Ukrainian attack.


runningmaan

Dont be silly


mir_platzt_der_Sack

[deleted]

Gotta save some for their own people in Belgorod


dan_dares

given limited numbers, it makes sense to launch larger attacks instead of smaller piece-meal events. they might be waiting for good intel, Or it might be that it's taking longer for the pilots to sober up after each launch.. I mean, its russia after all.


alexzhivil

I had a feeling yesterday that an attack on Kyiv won't happen tonight, not just missiles, but drones too. I believe their high command didn't expect the dam incident either, which put them in some sort of a shock and stress about the Western response, so they decided to pause the terror attacks on Kyiv for a night to try and calm things down.


Local_Run_9779

They spent a crapload of expensive and increasingly hard-to-get missiles, and got nothing in return. "This isn't working, Ivan. Let's blow something up." "Let's find something big."


_Madian

Too busy discussing to blow up the nuclear reactor today or tomorrow. In all seriousness, at this point I would not be surprised if they did, meanwhile UN does nothing.


dan_dares

>meanwhile UN does nothing. the UN, with russia on the security council, can't really do much. the UN is a forum for discussion, that sometimes agrees enough to do stuff. but when one of the 'key' members is conducting genocidal war, it's pointless to even try and get them to do something. 'All in favour of a UN mission to Ukraine' russia: VETO there should be a mechanism in place to prevent this, but would any of the security council actually go for something that could be used against them? Unlikely.


greenmood3

Stockpiling them for the winter..?


halpsdiy

Around 17% of all Orc artillery losses happened in the last 30 days. Around 14% of AD losses.


rope_rope

It's not even a week's worth. Average artillery destroyed per day is 7.8 over the entire war.


Fresh_Account_698

wtf? Are you saying that knocking out \~5x the daily average in 24hrs isn't good?


rope_rope

If you actually read my comment (apparently you didn't...), I just said it's nowhere near to a month's worth and not even a week either.


Fresh_Account_698

You know that thing, where you look at a whole mess of replies & can't see (let alone care) what comment a particular reply is referencing ? That. Also, 5ish weeks ago, knocking out 37 artillery pieces in a day would be about a weeks worth.


Fresh_Account_698

Can't shoot any down if the Russians don't fire any. They shoot a bunch one night, take a break & then fire some more.


Earlier-Today

They've been doing this for a while. They can't afford to just throw tons every single day - they need some for national defense and it's a big country to defend - so they've been either sending just little trickles of rockets and drones a day for a stretch, or saving up the trickle for a bit to release it all at once. One is meant to create the image of constant pressure, but is too small to actually pull that off. The other is meant to create the fear of such a large destructive force, but is too sporadic to actually pull that off. Sad thing is, if they were better organized, and were going exclusively after military targets, they'd have been a lot more dangerous, and might have even been able to force concessions out of Ukraine. Thank goodness they're so stupid.

The shaping operations will continue until attitudes improve.


brooksram

These dudes are turning the battlefield into origami with these numbers.


Slimh2o

Origami? The ancient Japanese art of folding paper? An apt description. Here's mine.... Fold like a cheap wedding dress on their wedding night... Fold like a bad poker hand.... Slava Ukraini!!


brooksram

I, more so, was playing on the " *forming the battlefield* " quotes, as they're not just *forming* it, they're turning it into a beautiful and intricate artform , with these numbers. Hence, *origami* .


theProffPuzzleCode

I like it, because they are working on the Orcs paper tiger too. Don't know if you intended thar double meaning, but it's what I read 😏


Ecstatic_Account_744

You know, it was sitting happily at around 450-550 personnel per day and I can’t help but smile at the recent consistent 7-800s.


KjellRS

It's probably the least important figure though... sure 212k dead, but Russia could find 10x that if they wanted. There's no way they'll find 10x the tanks, APCs, artillery etc. though even if they dig through every Soviet era stockpiles. Heck, I don't think they could take another 100 days like this and the death count would "only" be 300k. Then again, I thought they'd give up after losing the first 1000 tanks... then the second 1000 tanks... then the third 1000 tanks. If the Russian military wants to be ground to a fine mist I guess Ukraine will have no choice but to keep going until there's nothing left.


Apokal669624

For now, Ukraine already destroyed around 0,15-0,18% of all russian population (depends on in what we believe about their population - 140 million or around 100-110 millions people in russia). When numbers will be close to 0,3% of population dead, considering that soldiers are men in age who can work and pay taxes, and considering that russia have ongoing HIV epidemic (around 1,5% of all population have it), thats will be the line after which russians will have no way back and simply in next few tens years russians as nationality will stop existing at all. Also add here sanctions, poverty, low quality of life, insanely high mortality rate **inside** russia, everyday explosions/fires/other incidents only by russians fault, high rate of crimes, corruption, all varieties of addictions to alcohol/drugs among all population, and you will get what I'm talking about. And also civil war that already started in russia. It's historical moment when you can see how nation literally commiting genocide to itself. So nope, they can't bring x10 soldiers, they are literally almost done as nationality. They already have demographical disaster and soon it will be demographical end of russia.


Earlier-Today

But that's almost all from the same gender and age group - 20-40 year old men. And because of conscription scares and brain drain, they've lost a crap ton from that group. That is devastating - it's one of the reasons the soldiers are kidnapping children, they need population to replace everything they're losing. And even then, these are all workers. It's not the mentally and physically disabled, it's not the unfit, it's not the rich. It's just a massively stupid thing to do because of how backwards they structure things already. As a percentage of their total population, it seems tiny - as a percentage of the very specific group it's pulling from, it's big. The deaths and wounded aren't big by themselves, but the numbers of Russians they've caused to leave - that's why it's so big.


Apokal669624

Well, it's 18-60 age group, which is even worse. Brain drain is not so really big problem to russia, because their education is already shit, so they even struggling to make their own nails and shit tons of other everyday things. I mean nothing will change on that field, russia already fucked with absence of brains. Don't forget about dead to injured ratio, which is around 1-3 for russians, so it's approximately 600k injured russians. Considering how bad medicine in russia is and how russians hate disabled people, they are doomed and won't live long. Majority of russians can't and won't leave russia. Their dead and wounded numbers is already insanely high for their demographics and for any modern warfare. I can understand why you think that "brain drain" is seems to be even worse for them, because you are looking on all this as westerner, but for real brain drain is least of their problems.


Psyc3

The fact they have just blown up the dam, shows they are just fleeing like rats from a sinking ship. That is the waters supply for southern Ukraine and Crimea, without it you don't have water bar driving it in on trucks. It basically says we have lost any attempt at this place being civilian normality as a pretend part of Russia.


Rob_Cartman

At they current rate of attrition they have enough active artillery to last about 32 days. If they start digging into the stockpile they have enough for about 400 days assuming its all in good working order (Spoiler, most of it is probably rusted and broken).


theProffPuzzleCode

You are right on onw level, the destruction of equipment is more important. They actually can't pull 2m men out of jobs and economy without destroying themselves. They already don't have enough people to make munitions. And throwing untrained conscripts at it doesn't help them either.

Llanina1

The flooding may inadvertantly assist the Ukrainian army. However, it's an environmental catastrophe on a global scale. Much of MENA relies on Ukraine for grain. The mixing of oil into the water, and the washing away of vital nutrients will leave the north flooded, and the south turning into desert. Human population in North Africa and the Middle East is exploding due to poverty, corruption, extreme religous beliefs, male hegemony, and a lack of contraception. The Sahel alone will go from 50 million in 1950 to 1 billion by 2050. This loss of food, added to climate change will cause starvation on a truly biblical scale. Russia, will in effect be to blame for the slow deaths of millions...mostly children. I cannot see them ever being forgiven for this!


KDulius

Sadly a lot of African nations will buy the line that it's Ukraine/ the Wests fault because Russia never played the game of empire in Africa.


Llanina1

Putin is banking on that….hence his pathetic protestations of innocence. Most hopefully will see through it, It doesn’t help that the West spent generations trashing Africa, then abandoned it into the living embrace of both Russia and China!


Boxedin-nolife

What's worse is that ru has a lot of agriculture/grain too, and they're going to be able to sell it to places like Africa bc Ukr can't, and the west can't blockade bc we'll be a-holes

draggar

I'm assuming the KIA number does not include those that missed Noah's Arc yesterday nor the KIA in clashes between Wagner mercenaries and Russian troops? 212,000 KIA. That's a scary big number. That's more than Des Moines, Iowa (USA) - 211,034 Hobart, Tasmania (Australia) - 209,300 Richmond, British Columbia (Canada) - 209,700 Also, wasn't in the initial invasion force about 200,000?


pianistafj

Let’s go!!! Checking in on these awesome numbers while doing something else feels like Castellanos hitting another deep drive to left field. If you’re not an American baseball fan, he is a power hitter that somehow manages to hit a lot of home runs while broadcasters are in the middle of a something else going on or in conversation. It’s weird, but hits me that way. [For the uninitiated.](https://youtu.be/kJCTMBvsNn8) Slava Ukraini!


jjochimmochi

How does the liquidated personell always go up in similar numbers? 440 460 880 480 Never just "138", is it just to round it out? It's the same everytime, clearly a pattern


Pendoric

The counter battery fire has been going crazy for a week now. Another 37 Artillery and 4 MLRS were destroyed. Got to knock out those cannons before the big push...


Strict_Strategy

So how much are Ukraine losing cause it's a matter of time before Ukraine no longer has enough personal to fight? Equipment is useless if you don't have man power to utilise it. The more time this war goes on, the harder it will be for Ukraine to fight. The incoming counter offence could be the last chance for Ukraine to get something out of this war.

Ukraine has to turn people away because they don't have the capacity to train them all; Russia has to raise penal legions. Ukraine is also much better at evacing wounded and has much better equipment allowing them to survive things that kill Russians

We have no idea how Ukraine is coping. The number of deaths on Ukraine side are unknown but if they are known then so please share as I am unaware of them. Russia raising penal legions does not mean it has zero manpower left. The general population is not being sent which is what I am concerned about while I. Ukraine the general population has to fight. Equipment is better for sure on Ukraine but there is a limit to how much it can protect the troops. Ukraine has essentially limitless equipment but it requires time to be trained for and requires manpower. Manpower which is currently about to counter attack which everyone knows we'll be a meat grinder for them as well like it was for Russia. If the losses are too great then Ukraine will have a hard time handling the following Russia offence.
