Record losses for Russia in Ukraine. The pace is 70 soldiers per hour

Recent data indicates that Russian forces are experiencing significant losses in Ukraine, averaging around 12,000 weekly and over 1,700 daily. Despite some territorial gains, Russia has lost control of approximately 160 square kilometers in October alone. The pace of recruitment may not keep up with the losses, with estimates suggesting around 30,000 new recruits monthly. Analysts estimate total Russian casualties since the invasion began in February 2022 to be between 770,000 and 1.4 million, significantly surpassing U.S. casualties in all conflicts since World War II.
