The War in the Ukraine

i thought it was 80,000 with those kind of numbers i would expect the map to be entirely blue regarding the amount sent for the operation. I believe it as much as the ghost of kiev story and the rape statistic claims.
The 10,000 killed, 30,000 wounded numbers were the last official number released by Ukraine up to June 3rd. There's been a month of fighting since then including the loss of several strategically important towns so the number will be higher.
Given they're rounded I think both numbers are estimates rather than actual numbers, I also find it weird that the wounded number is exactly 3x the KIA count.
They also didn't release the numbers of MIA, a lot of families have hope their sons/husbands didn't die and instead deserted or were captured. Ukrainian civilian death claims appear to be unrealistically high (5x UN numbers), I imagine a lot of soldiers are being considered civilians. There was a BBC report the other day about a "war crime" where a TDU unit who changed into civilian clothes were caught and (allegedly) executed on the spot for perfidy. No doubt Ukrainians are counting them as civilians rather than combatants.

This could be devastating if true. I wonder what was hit and the weapon the Russians used given that not even sirens went off.

Problem is looks like the Russians could destroy 10-15% of HIMARS/week ,means deploying lot of them will be same benefit, but without keeping a constant supply they will be just wasted like every other system.
There is no mass and momentum.

Looks like the war is going to be dragged on for years if other countries are getting involved to help Russia. On this note, it must be a pretty big blow to Russian psyche to have to rely on Iran for weaponry.
Considering the Iranians have been accused of everything under the sun since 1979 by the US, without a single shred of evidence, I think we can safely add this to the list of BS until proven otherwise
You two need to acquaint yourselves with information warfare. Some things are not worth sharing or discussing here
