The losses of the Russian occupiers break records...

As the Russian occupation of Ukraine drags on, the losses sustained by Russian soldiers

continue to mount at an alarming rate.

In November and December, record numbers of occupiers were destroyed, and the partial

mobilization of Russian forces has done nothing to stem the tide of casualties.

According to sources close to the matter, the high losses can be attributed to a lack

of professionalism and poor quality of conscripts brought in through partial mobilization.

The current monthly average of 16,000 losses may continue in the coming months, as there

is no sign of an improvement in the quality of troops.

Despite these high losses, the number of destroyed tanks on the occupier's side has been decreasing

month by month.

This is not due to a decrease in the capabilities of Ukrainian forces, but rather a decrease

in the number of tanks available to the occupiers.

The disproportionate ratio of cannon fodder losses to destroyed tanks underscores the

dire situation faced by the Russian army, which is trying to maintain control of the

situation amid fierce resistance.

As what is happening in the war zone is only worsening the condition of the Russian troops,

it remains unclear how long the occupiers will be able to sustain such high losses.

The situation on the ground is increasingly unstable, and the impact on the Russian army

could have far-reaching consequences.

Has everyone already heard about the mass New Year's gifts of Ukrainian HIMARS to the

occupiers ?

The professional and qualitative level of personnel will not come out of nowhere, and

cannon fodder will be needed in even greater numbers...

After all, Putin keeps talking about a protracted war.

A protracted war at the expense of what?

For example, the number of destroyed tanks of the occupation troops is decreasing from

month to month.

Not because the capabilities of the Ukrainian armed forces to destroy them have decreased,

but because the occupiers have fewer tanks in the combat zone.

And, again, there is a striking disproportion with the increase in losses of personnel.

The situation with artillery is similar.

The Russian forces are experiencing an acute shortage in the number of guns and problems

in providing them with ammunition.

Today, there is a quantitatively proportional artillery presence only in the Bakhmut region,

but there is an acute problem with ammunition.

Armored fighting vehicles - nothing new.

The lack of a standard number of combat units in the units also leads to fewer losses of

this equipment.

Not because there is nothing to destroy it, but because it has become many times less

in service of Russian troops, which does not allow to fully recruit units.

So Putin's main resource for a protracted war will be biomass?

Yes, that's exactly right.

Not provided with equipment, artillery, ammunition, nothing.

And to prolong the war solely with this component is impossible in today's conditions.

Especially with such losses.

In October, November and December the Russian occupiers lost 47,000 liquidated.

That's not counting those wounded of varying severity.

According to the most conservative estimates, multiply by 2.

That is the total losses are almost 141,000 or almost 50% of the total number of partially

mobilized people.

In fact, the resource of the partially mobilized will be completely exhausted by February.

This means that already in January Putin will have to announce another partial or full mobilization,

the resources of which will be ground up even faster, because the unprofessionalism of the

recruits is joined by a rapid reduction of the technical component.

Oh, that second infantry army in the world...
