Inside Russia's hidden war machine: A shocking look at military losses and tactics

In Rostov-on-Don a mega-sized morgue shows the real cost of Russias war machine: its packed wall-to-wall with zinc-lined caskets while decomposing bodies fill the hallways (a grim reminder of the wars toll)

The numbers paint a dark picture: about 1500 Russian troops die each day – thats way more than the Soviet-Afghan war losses. The total death count sits somewhere between 115000-160000 with overall casualties reaching 800000. According to military-tracking data Russia lost over 500 heavy vehicles in recent months; their equipment stockpiles are getting low

The battle tactics show a troubling pattern. Yevgeny Prigozhin introduced human-wave attacks in Bakhmut where soldiers rush forward until defenders run out of ammo. In Avdiivka alone; Russian forces lost about 16000 troops – a number that pro-war bloggers dont deny

The war affects different groups un-equally. Remote regions ethnic minorities and prisoners make up most casualties while Moscow and St Petersburg stay mostly safe. Meanwhile; Russia moves Ukrainian civilians (mostly women and kids) into its territory – replacing them with Russian settlers

  • Soldiers get almost no training
  • Officers torture troops who question orders
  • Barrier troops shoot deserters
  • Many soldiers choose suicide over combat

The wars sustainability looks shaky as Putins forces keep throwing everything at Ukraine. Western support remains key – especially after Biden okayed strikes on Russian military targets but the human toll doesnt seem to affect Moscows decision-making
