Ukraine says Russia suffered highest number of weekly losses last week From CNN’s Oren Liebermann and Michael Rios Russia suffered its highest number of weekly losses since it launched its invasion of Ukraine, the Ukrainian Defense Ministry said on Monday.
The ministry reported 11,370 Russian losses last week, saying on X, “We make the occupiers pay the highest price for their terror.”
Citing the Ukrainian General Staff of the Armed Forces, the UK Defense Ministry said Monday that Russia suffered an average of 1,498 daily casualties in the first 12 days of November — up from October’s record average 1,354 losses per day. According to the ministry on X, the numbers indicate that an “upward trajectory” is likely to continue.
What the US is saying: Meanwhile, the Pentagon’s Deputy press secretary Sabrina Singh said that the US believes Russia continues to suffer about 1,200 casualties per day.
“Our assessment is still roughly 1,200 casualties per day,” Singh told reporters on Monday. “That’s what we feel comfortable with right now.”
Russia’s casualty numbers remain shrouded in secrecy. In September 2022, former Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said 5,937 troops had been killed in the war. The ministry has not published an update since.

Russia hasn't even mobilized and is fighting with volunteers. WW2 had battles with over 1 million soldiers on each side (Stalingrad, Moscow, Leningrad). Neither side has that many on the battlefield right now in Ukraine. You had firebombings of entire cities in WW2 with huge raids of heavy bombers, which hasn't happened at all here.
It is just not comparable at all. |

The strategic objective is to collapse the front to the Dnepr river, which is actually going pretty well. Russia has taken more land last month than at any point of the war since the initial push.
In general, I expect this war to get bloodier at this point for a while. |

i understand why fake claims would be made by one side to improve morale, but that doesn't mean you should take those claims seriously. |
