> good to know that we finally have an official confirmation that ukraine lost ~1 million troops > now let the cope begin   > source? the ukraine has over 1 million killed and 100k+ amputations   aine-a-surge-in-amputations-reveals -the-human-cost-of-russias-war-d0bc a320 > ukraine now has 50,000 amputees, translating to ~500k deaths, according to wsj, dated august 1, 2023 for comparison britain had 41,000 in ww1.  the us had 1600 amputees since 9/11 compared 7000 service members and 8000 contractors killed a us military study found the following: vietnam limb loss: > 5,283 lost limbs,  > 1,081 sustained multiple amputations.  amputation or crippling wounds to the lower extremities were 300% higher than in wwii  and 70% higher than in korea.  multiple amputations occurred at the rate of 18.4% compared to 5.7% in wwii. vietnam deaths: > the vietnam conflict extract data file of the defense casualty analysis system (dcas) extract files contains records of 58,220 u.s. military so its safe to say, judging by ~50k amputee figure from aug2023, ukraine had 500k dead at that point alone, which was basically the 'half-way' point to where we are now and this was before > bakmhut > the majority of the counter-offensive > soledar > fabbing > total drone death ukraine has over 1 million killed by this point, and its likely 2x that after the unimaginable losses ukraine sustained post aug.2023.
