🤔 The Ukrainian Armed Forces lost 80,000 soldiers killed and another 400,000 wounded. The Russian Armed Forces lost 200,000 soldiers killed and another 500,000 wounded — The Wall Street Journal, citing sources in the American government

The publication notes that such losses are problematic for both sides, but they are much more damaging to Ukraine, whose population is four times smaller than that of the Russian Federation. "The high and rapidly growing casualty figures on both sides underscore that in the long term they will have devastating consequences for countries that were struggling with population decline before the conflict"
