    At the beginning of July, the armed forces include:

    prisoners - 7244;
    missing - 2816; non-combat losses - 1610.

    Total - 131014 people.

    Losses in other law enforcement agencies (SBU, NGU, GPSU, etc.) are not included in these numbers.


    This is obviously unconfirmed and can easily be disinformation, but it is what’s circulating at the moment.

    It is nearly impossible for the number of wounded to be lower than the number of killed, as a rule of every war ever, the number of wounded is always about 3x higher than the number of killed.

    That document understates that number heavily.

    If 76.6k are dead, about 150k to 180k are wounded.
    https://t.me/asbmil/4326

    The rule of 3 for 1 shouldn't apply today. Weapons are way more precise and deadly. When they hit they kill. A kh-101 going through your window will blow up anyone in the building. A WW2 bomb falling next to a building with less power will kill few and hurt many.

    I think in a war like this where one has an army that crushes the other, the rule will be 1 for 1 for the weak army.

    The ratio of 3:1 may not apply but the lower bound should be 1:1.   Also, the artillery barrages are not some new type of
    warfare.   One does not get 0:1 for such engagements.  

    The document is fake even if it is genuine.   Nothing that the Kiev regime puts out is credible.   They will only cite the
    truth if it serves their propaganda agenda.

    A lot of the wounded in the trenches probably just didn't make it. Survivors tell of shellings that don't stop for days, if not weeks rendering evac impossible so if you got hit while in the midst of a bombardment, tough luck. The nightly Kaliber visits on Ukrainian garrisons probably didn't help either. Entire bases just fried and nobody attempts rescue until well after daybreak for fear of double tap strikes.

    Artillery is way more precise today than before with real time drone intel. Krasnopol also makes huge losses to ukrainians.

    76000 killed is realistic. 40000 wounded is also realistic if you take into account that they may just surrender or leave after getting wounded and not be counted. Plenty are just dead but they don't know.

    ▫5 ammunition depots near Il'inka, Krasnaya Gora in Donetsk People's Republic, Novoalexandrovka in Zaporozhye Region, Shirokoye in Dnepropetrovsk Region, Snigirevka in Nikolaev Region, and combined logistics support facility of AFU near Orekhov in Zaporozhye Region.

    💥As part of counter-battery warfare, 1 Uragan multiple-launch rocket battery near Dzerzhinsk in Donetsk People's Republic and 1 Smerch MLRS platoon near Rogan' in Kharkov Region have been hit.

    ▫In addition, 4 platoons of Grad multiple-launch rocket systems near Seversk, Artemovsk, Orlovka in Donetsk People's Republic and Barmashovo in Nikolaev Region, as well as 3 platoons of D-30 howitzers at firing positions near Soledar, Opytnoye and Antonovka in Donetsk People's Republic have been suppressed.

    🇷🇺🇺🇦 “Mirgorod was hit by a group of Russian air-to-surface missile attack on military infrastructure, the number of casualties and destruction is being specified,” the 831 tactical aviation brigade of the Ukrainian Air Force said in a statement.
    https://t.me/intelslava/35937

    Meanwhile, in the 831st tactical aviation brigade of the Ukrainian Air Force, they proudly declare that they will “restore the airfield and all equipment” after today's missile strikes.

    It seems that Ukrainian aviation has lost a certain number of combat vehicles.

    With fire corrected by drones they are definitely new. The use of drones for artillery fire correction and to seek targets of opportunity is far more then any war in history. Even mortar teams are using drones. That makes them FAR more deadly

    Ukrainian pilots are Suicide Drones at best, but what's a life worth in Бандерастан(country 404)?

    If the country you are at war with is able to fly in your airspace, then it is clear that Ukraine should also retaliate against Russia and fly over Russia. Can Ukraine do it ?

    Bloomberg: new package of US military assistance to Ukraine includes six NASAMS air defense systems


    Agency sources emphasize that the equipment included in the new package of American assistance to Kiev has not yet been produced and will go into service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine in a few months.

    NEW YORK, 24 August. /TASS/. The new package of US military assistance to Ukraine includes six mobile air defense systems (SAM) NASAMS. This was reported on Wednesday by Bloomberg, citing sources.

    In addition to NASAMS air defense systems, the United States, as part of a new assistance package, will supply Ukraine with 245,000 155-mm artillery shells, 65,000 120-mm mortar ammunition, U24 anti-artillery radars, Puma reconnaissance vehicles and equipment for them, Vampire drone combat equipment, missile systems laser guidance, as well as funding for the training and provision of the military. Agency sources emphasize that the equipment included in the new package of American aid to Kiev has not yet been produced and will go into service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine in a few months.

    Earlier Wednesday, US President Joe Biden announced a $2.98 billion military aid package for Ukraine. providing long-term defense.

    The Associated Press reported on the US plans to allocate additional military aid to Kiev on Tuesday. As emphasized by the agency, in this way the American leadership intends to strengthen the defense capabilities of Ukraine in the medium and long term.

    NASAM, the next gamechanger.  Laughing Laughing Laughing In most characteristics inferior to the old Buk-M1 systems.

    Agency sources emphasize that the equipment included in the new package of American aid to Kiev has not yet been produced and will go into service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine in a few months.

    Let us put that in context: America already has to produce new stuff while Russia is still using artillery shells made in the 70´s or even 60´s, tanks made in the 70´s and SAM´s made in the 80´s. Only some of the high-precision weapons (Kalibers or Izd. 305) are newly produced.

    This does not take it to 0:1. The Ukrs are using reinforced concrete bunkers under several meters of soil. These are impossible to destroy or even
    damage with any artillery shells in existence. They require bunker busters or hypersonic missiles. So I do not see how there would be a minor
    fraction of injuries compared to deaths.

    If Russia was using chemical weapons to gas the Ukrs, then maybe total extermination would be achievable. The document is clearly quoting BS
    numbers.

    According to incoming reports, several planes of the 831st tactical aviation brigade of the Ukrainian Air Force were destroyed at the airfield in Mirgorod today. It is armed with the remaining Su-27 fighters and several L-39 Albatross light attack aircraft. Several unnamed vehicles were destroyed or damaged - most likely it is the Su-27. There was also a significant number of dead and wounded. In addition, the airfield infrastructure and various wheeled vehicles were damaged.

    Recently, at the Kanatovo airfield, 2 Su-27s of the same brigade were already caught at the airfield, which were supposed to be used in the operation to organize the flight of a Russian pilot to Ukraine, which was uncovered by the FSB. As you can see, the 831st brigade was taken on board and the hunt for aircraft running around the airfields continued.

    The strike was carried out by long-range aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces. The air defense systems of Ukraine were unable to cover the airfield from attacks by X-22 missiles.
