  1.  @warren6891  1) Russia already over year not send additional troops to battlefield, so no, it not lost "thousands more". It means it almost have no losses actually. In Avdeevka Russia used just 7 brigades, while UA - 17 brigades. UA last two months publicly discussed about needs of additional 500k (total losses already close to 1 million). 2) Are you just compared Iraq and UA? Iraq — small country with weak army which rejected to fight immediately. UA — hugest in Europe army, more than have all EU countries combined. With more weapons than have all European countries combined. Army with one of the lowest loss threshold (not retreat until left few out of hundreds). Iraq — had no help. UA — have help from 50 countries, including whole NATO. Both with weapons and even dozens thousands of soldiers (so-called volunteers, actually illegally troops). In Iraq US used strategy of cover bombings, in result there are near 2 million losses of civilians. Russia do not use such strategy, so loses on civilians is less than as example for 2 month in Gaza (with population in 10 times less). One of the lowest in history actually. 3) Russia not lost anything. When UA signed treaty, Russia declared about own withdraw of forces back to home, operation was finished in 1 month. But then joined Wes and forced UA to fight. If they were clever enough and wait at least a week before cancel deal, then whole troops would return back. Initially UA had chance to return to Minsk agreement and preserve all own territories, it was publicly declared condition. While nowadays Russia declared another goals for own operation, like "demilitarization". It means it will fight until in UA army exist at least one soldier. While territories — nobody cares about territories, main goal — to reduce amount of soldiers in UA to zero. By estimations already 1 million done.
