| Al Jazeera Reports 400,000 Russian Soldiers Killed, Wounded For 0.8% Ukraine by Lordly13(op): 7:46pm On Apr 07 |
Al Jazeera reports that over 400,000 Russian soldiers were killed or wounded in 2025. And Only 0.8% of Ukraine. This casualty figure corresponds to Russia capturing only about 0.8 percent of Ukrainian territory during 2025. The reports emphasize the high human cost Russia has paid for very limited territorial gains. In 2025, the war in Ukraine inflicted a heavy toll on Russian forces, with over 400,000 Russian soldiers killed or wounded. This staggering casualty figure corresponds to the cost Russia paid for capturing only about 0.8 percent of Ukrainian territory. According to Ukraine’s General Staff, this highlights the extreme human price Russia has endured for relatively minimal territorial gains. Despite these significant losses, Russian President Vladimir Putin appears determined to avoid peace talks, signaling a continued commitment to military action rather than diplomatic resolution. Could it be shame if losing to a much smaller nation? Ukraine’s resilience and defense efforts have resulted in severe attrition of Russian forces, even as the war drags on. The situation reflects a grim reality where Russia’s military advances have been limited despite enormous sacrifices, prolonging instability and suffering in the region. This dynamic emphasizes the urgent need for diplomatic engagement to prevent further loss of life and destruction, as the war’s continuation threatens broader regional and international consequences. The conflict remains a critical focus for global observers seeking pathways to peace amid ongoing hostilities.

I watch the war updates daily on some exclusive TG channels and they are correct. Ukraine's locally made drone really dealt a serious blow on Russia last year. North Korea alone lost over 20,000 soldiers they sent to Russia to help Russia. That was why Kim Jung Un hurriedly went and built apartments for those fallen North Korean soldiers using the money Putin gave him to pacify North Korean military. If Ukraine had missiles like Iran, honestly by now Putin will be in exile in North Korea hiding Russia the paper tiger nation |

If Ukraine is well armed with high range missiles like Iran, Russia would have begged for a cease fire since. Let's assume Ukraine is this present stubborn Iran, the whole of Petersburg and Moscow would have turned to rubbles. Russia would have chickened out of the senseless war. |

Elusive001:4 years war, full Russian might against a nation that doesn't have: No Navy No Airforce, No Missile reverse like Iran, But Russia is struggling and losing, for four years now. USA killed Iran supreme leader in one day, Iran said the new one is unconscious (he may be dead). But for four years, Zelensky is still standing strong. Putin na mouth he get, zero military knowledge. |

jacobs2015:Absolutely, Ukraine signed a deal with Russia before 2015 to reduce their military, then Putin seeing the reduced military attacked Cremia. But now, Russia is struggling against a very small military with very little resources |

Lordly13:I agree with you. Russia is truly struggling against Ukraine. Imagine if Ukraine had not given up her weapons back in the day. I see israel as the most war hardened and war strategy country. I also believe that GOD Almighty has been protecting israel too. Ordinarily, I do not like Russia. |

Elusive001:That's true, that's the same reason Putin won't attack neighbouring countries like Finland, Poland and Hungary when they applied for NATO membership. These nations are fully NATO now. Why didn't Putin attack Finland in 2022 while they were applying for NATO membership? He saw Ukraine with small military. Putin is a coward who attacks only small nations. |

Uyi168:Yes, they were heavily seeking man power because of serious loses. February along saw the biggest lost Russia has faced, and highest territory recovery for Ukraine.
