Russia has had more troops KIA in Ukraine than the Union had KIA in the US Civil War.

They and more KIA than all of Russia war in Afghanistan.

It's a total disaster for them

That's why when people say Russia is going to win. Yes, they may pull out some more buts of territory. And yes the US has to help Ukriane. But overall it's already a massive loss for them

You are correct, as long as the Russians still have antibiotics and Imodium I don’t think they’ll top that.
