Viva la Kursk Peoples Republic!
On August 6, AFU invaded the Kursk Oblast in Russia, almost immediately capturing a few hundreds Russian POWs and killing scores of others.
In the 7 months that followed, the Glorious Fascist Armed Forces of the RF have been unable to drive the Ukrainians out. Ukraine still controls around 500 sq. Km. Of territory in Kursk while almost 200 sq. Km. Are still being in the Gray Zone. All in all, 62,000 combined Russo-Korean troops have been unable to defeat 20,000 Ukrainians.

[B]In other news: [/B]Putin, it seems, has lost all hope to "liberate" Kursk anytime soon. In January he mentioned Kursk just once across all his public speeches.
[B]In other news: [/B]Russia hit a boarding school in Unraine-controlled Sudza in Kursk Oblast where a hundred of RUSSIAN civilians was living after previous Russian bombardments had destroyed their own homes. Four people are dead and four are seriously wounded.
On the same day Russia hit an apartment building in Ukraine's Poltava killing 14. Like I said a few posts below, Russia kills Russians and Ukrainians with equal vigor and enthusiasm, and has been doing so for centuries.
For some people, indiscriminate killings of civilians (even your own civilians!) are a war crime. For Russians it's business as usual. Nothing new there.
100,000 dead, wounded and MIA Russians in two months.
[B]Russia experiences deadliest months in Ukrainian with nearly 100,000 soldiers lost[/B]
What warring nation can sustain this kind of losses? Seriously!
Yes, it's true that life in Russia is so horrible that people of all ages still sign up for huge $50,000 bonuses. But even if enough new recruits volunteered (there aren't nearly enough) it would cost Russia $5 billion monthly to (ONLY) replace their losses. And that's just the SIGN UP BONUSES that don't include all other military expenditures.
$60 billion annually in the US money just to get them to the frontlines!
One would have to be totally out of whack to believe this is sustainable.
[QUOTE]Russia has experienced its two deadliest months in the ongoing Ukrainian conflict, with nearly 100,000 soldiers lost since December's onset.
The Ukrainian Ministry of Defence released figures indicating that Russia suffered losses of 48,670 personnel in December and 48,240 in January, marking these as the most devastating months of the entire conflict.
Russia has been locked in a stalemate with Ukraine as both sides have interchanged military blows, while Putin regularly threatens nuclear action against Ukraine and Western powers.

Peace in Ukraine is more likely to come through Putin being abducted by aliens
These casualty numbers, averaging 1,556 people per day, encompass those killed, wounded, captured, or missing, underscoring the Russian leadership's continued readiness to sacrifice lives for their strategic objectives.
According to Ukrainian intelligence, this brings the total Russian losses to 841,660 as Putin's forces persist in launching offensives in the Kursk and Donetsk regions.
Notably, these figures do not account for North Korean troops.[/QUOTE][URL]https://www.the-express.com/news/world-news/162568/ukraine-conflict-russian-troop-losses[/URL]
