Original Note:
This post uses figures published by Russia, which are known to be unreliable/false. The most reliable source for estimates is the US government, which put the figure close to 70k dead in August 2023. 1000 deaths per day is dramatically higher than the real figure. https://www.newsweek.com/russia-ukraine-losses-casualties-tanks-death-toll-anniversary-1864726 https://www.reuters.com/world/us-intelligence-assesses-ukraine-war-has-cost-russia-315000-casualties-source-2023-12-12/
