Russia ‘accidentally reveals’ 10,000 of its soldiers have been killed, before article disappears from pro-Kremlin news website - Independent.ie

Previously Russia had only admitted to 500 losses
Vanished article said more than 16,000 Russian troops had also been wounded in Ukraine

Russia’s ministry of defence appeared to accidentally reveal that nearly 10,000 of its soldiers have been killed in Ukraine.

The figure was contained in a report on March 20 by the pro-Kremlin Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper, which has since been deleted from the paper’s website.

Before it was removed, the article quoted the Russian defence ministry as saying that 9,861 Russian soldiers had been killed, and 16,153 were injured, in more than three weeks of fighting.

Previously, the Russian military had only admitted that around 500 soldiers had been killed.

The article was taken down from the paper’s website and replaced with a version not including casualty numbers.

The apparent new figures were similar to a conservative estimate by US intelligence last week that at least 7,000 Russian soldiers had died up to that point, with up to 21,000 injured.

Ireland
The Irish Government is planning for the potential arrival of 200,000 Ukrainians into the country as the Russian invasion continues.

A Cabinet meeting later on Tuesday will see ministers discuss the crisis in war-torn Ukraine as well as the Irish response.

The Government has already welcomed about 10,000 Ukrainian refugees into the country but is preparing for tens of thousands more.

How valid is this?
There’s no way Zelensky is winning this War, he’s only a pawn in a game that is way bigger than him, he’s jeopardizing everything for egos sake!

Putin’s days are already numbered. He has made the gravest mistakes and the highest miscalculation in the history of his rule / dominance
Re: Russia ‘accidentally Reveals’ 10,000 Of Its Soldiers Have Been Killed by xxq0911: 3:15pm On Mar 22, 2022
Keep in mind this is just the Russian dead. It doesn't take into account their proxy fighters (Chechens, seperatists, Wagner). Throw those in and the number is higher.

Throw in the Russian wounded/captured/deserted and the number goes higher.

Its been calculated that wounded is generally 3-4x killed. So that means they have 40k-50k troops out of commission. From an initial staging army size of 180k. No wonder things have basically ground to a halt.

so Russia still have like 130k soldiers left in Ukraine

The United States lost 7,000 soldiers over two decades in Iraq and Afghanistan. while Russia’s losses 10,0000 in 4 weeks. I can’t make it make sense. Was the goal to make Ukraine look ruthless and evil by shoving soldiers into a meat grinder? Get the Russian people’s avid support through the sunk cost fallacy somehow?

Too right! If not for their nukes, Fulani herdsmen for fit take Moscow. Russian soldiers are very incompetent. If you look at history, every war they fight, they loose massive amounts of men, even if they win at the end.

Also keep in mind if Russia admit 10K dead, the real figure must be closer to 20K.

What are you are saying, these European puppet will just open mouth anyhow sometimes. If Russia lose 10,000 men I know Ukraine will have lose more and many of their properties that they build in hundred of years will have gone.

Russia is innitialy fighting with whole Europe and some Asia countries who are european friend.... Google Map in Ukraine was taken down to make things harder for the Russian men.. Apart from that, many steps are taking under the scene to make sure that Russia lose.

Still they stand tall.... No matter how wounded the Russia soldier is.. They will never surrender to greedy Western world.

Pointless as usual, only God can open your eyes from the lies that US movies has told about their soldiers..... Your Yeye US withdraw Taliban home when they fought for 20 years without victory.... Even Taliban was growing stronger everyday against them.

Ukraine loose the most, the whole Europe is either bleeding or protesting now because the action of Putin affect everyone of them.

Russia will always win my mind... At least they shows US, NaTo and other yeye world power countries that craze pass craze.

Stop reasoning from your anus! Did I mention US there? Russia that promised to capture Ukraine within 48 hours, why have they not done so over the past three weeks now?

Why not face the reality? Their men are being killed on a daily basis but they kept the death toll secret. Lots of their tanks were destroyed and seized. Many fighter jets were also blown. What do you call that?

Moreover, the US and NATO are sensible not to directly interfere in the war because of the avoidance world war 3. Ukraine is yet to join NATO, so why do you want the US and NATO members to fight?
