    The real question we need to be focusing on is how long can Russia continue to keep losing the number of troops they are and still expect their young men to keep signing up going into year four of this conflict. They are close to almost 1 million causalities either KIA or WIA and you cannot hide that fact from the populace back in Russia. There is a book called the Black Tulip about the Soviet's war in Afghanistan that is likely going to be very relevant very soon.

    Senior grunt then ? No matter. It’s like asking a fish what it’s like in the ocean.

    Forget about the speculation portion of this, the headline, if true, signals some major problems there.

    Thank you for continuing to show your complete ignorance. Keeps putting a smile on my face and make others here laugh.

    Looks like Ukraine's special forces conducted a raid behind enemy lines and managed to kill 330 troops. Quite an impressive feat, even if it turns out to be only 330 casualties instead of deaths. In addition to the chaos and killing, the mission also managed to disrupt food and ammunition logistics for Russia.

    Russia's milbloggers are also reporting that a large number of Russian troops are trapped, surrounded on three sides by water and Ukrainian troops on the fourth.
