... Ukr KIA score via their (Lithuanian? based news outlet which counts via Ukr obituaries) Got that wrong. Originally I was thinking of Medusa, which is in Latvia. I don't know where MediaZona is based (that BBC relies on) ... and, it is counting RF and not Ukr casualties, which they reckon is now 30,000 since the start of the SMO. Elsewhere, it is said 47,000. With plausible 1:7 ratio, using latter figure, Ukr KIA are about 325,000. This implies about 1 million Ukr casualties, KIA and wounded and taken out of the military. I wouldn't be surprised if it not more than that. Horrendous war crime by war mongers like Boris Johnson and the rest of the NATOstan officials as well as the neoNazis in Kiev since this conflict could have been stopped during peace talks in Istanbul.
