On the other hand I would absolutely believe there's been more military casualties on the Russian side than the Ukrainian. With how much of an unready cockup this invasion has turned out to be and the fact the Ukrainians are competent enough to not completely fold. Would not doubt the human wave of Russian teenage conscripts are getting wrecked.

The whole every slav with an ak Ukraine started muddies those waters but eh.

Russia has air superiority, massive artillery superiority, and better equipment generally so its far more likely the casualty figures are lopsidedly in Russia's favor. Military history for the last 30 years shows the more modern force gets nasty K:D ratios and defender's advantage doesn't mean much when you don't have the equipment.

This but unironically. Nobody is doubting that Russia will win this - they can just drown Ukraine in conscripts and material. However, considering they fell on them from every side, including Belarus, and this is all they've got to show for it? Pretty pathetic. No wonder Putin is so scared.

Yes, when the US didn't take Baghdad on the second day it was the surest sign yet that Saddam had them on the ropes.

I take this with an absolute bucket of salt, but I'm seeing some rumors floating around that that Russian cruise missile strike on the apartment building might have been a Ukrainian AA missile that went off course. I do give this a slight bit of credibility though because most long-range ground-to-ground missiles carry ample payload to bring down a building like that.

yeah i’m hearing that also. but it’s weird cause the angle of the missile. it’s like it’s coming from a higher elevation? then going into the building lower from where it came into frame.

unless maybe they were on the roof? idk i’m not 100% sure i understand how AA missiles work.

Another thing that might indicate this being true is that the Ukrainians put out that no one died. As we have seen they are no more honest than the Russians - and if it really was a Russian strike I'd think they might have dressed up the death count.
