(#5087) In the last 16 days nearly 11,000 young Russian soldiers have been killed inside Ukraine

      The death toll for Russia of it's armed forces reached 110,250 since the beginning of the invasion putin instigated without provocation. Murderer putin wanted to take Ukraine under its influence and power but Ukraine said no and here we are. With 110 thousand young Russian soldiers dead with at least that many who are wounded and maimed. So close to a quarter million Russian youth have been ravaged by this ego driven illegal invasion of putins. That number is astronomical. Consider again that "only" 58 thousand Americans soldiers died in Vietnam over a 10 year period. This Russian invasion of Ukraine by putin is not even a year old yet.
     There is no way Russia can sustain these kind of casualties. Russia is said to have had 1 million active duty soldiers with another 2 million in reserve. But think of it this way, not all of those soldiers are combat soldiers, many are support personnel for the actual fighters of which there are far fewer today than in February 2022 when putin first invaded Ukraine. With most of the elite Russian forces having been killed off the remainder of troops for the invasion are less experienced and more afraid of dying knowing what they know now. Which is why so many of the Russian troops left in Ukraine are surrendering instead of being cannon fodder for the inept Russian leadership.
     Russia continues to call up its reserves but these reserves are not capable of fighting the experienced and motivated Ukrainian forces. More shedding of Russian blood onto the Ukrainian ground is expected and in larger quantities. More young Russian soldiers will be liquidated and still putin sees himself as invincible. It is sad to watch from afar the devastation being wrought on the Ukrainian people but just as much it is difficult seeing the madman putin send his youngsters into certain death. The Russian people are an embarrassment for giving into their dictator without stopping him with every cell in their bodies. They allow putin to kill off their offspring without a demand that he stop that can be heard anywhere!
