Original Note:
These figures are not accurate, not reliable and cannot be relied on. Russia has a history of lying about its military. The Oryx blog had been counting visually identified losses of equipment in the war. The Oryx figures are independent and open source. https://www.oryxspioenkop.com/2022/02/attack-on-europe-documenting-ukrainian.html?m=1 https://www.oryxspioenkop.com/2022/02/attack-on-europe-documenting-equipment.html https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/jun/23/wagner-chief-accuses-moscow-of-lying-to-public-about-ukraine-yevgeny-prigozhin
