.........and since the losses (which don't include even more numerous WIA) are concentrated in the Russian army's combat units, it means much of the trained professional frontline leadership it started the war with is now gone. Small wonder it is fighting so poorly with B or C leadership teams now in charge.tremble said:74OA said:At least 2 958 Russian officers have been killed in Ukraine as of 13 October ’23.

For whom? Enough for Russia? Good question. It seems Afghan-Soviet war was enough, but that was a much longer special operation (with less KIA). Perhaps it should be a measurement of time and not lives. They have a long tradition that predates Stalin of life being cheap.Gilligan said:

Propagandist Sladkov is preparing his audience for the lack of any actions by Russia in the coming months and says it needs 5-10x superiority over Ukraine to advance again. Looks like the past year was just not enough for the second military in the world to accumulate potential. pic.twitter.com/DYIpc58pLq

Everyone was still moving after that. Guess the video might have ended too soon, but there might be only one guy injured. Maybe two? Are these bombs just concussion bombs?

Sounds like they lost a bunch of helos, but more importantly they may have lost a lot of the munitions and guided weapons for any remaining helos.
