I recall a higher body count on that one, though it’s probably fairly even as Wagner shot down a plane and several helicopters on the way.Anyone remember the "coup" in Turkey, attempted by a few k conscripts thinking they were on an excercise while Erdogan wasn't even in the country?
He added that an end to the conflict without Ukrainian control of Crimea: “it will not be a victory.”
True for now, but given the choice of a failed Russia state post-Putin and a victorious Westward-facing Ukraine it might be different.Good luck with that. You're going to have to institute some purges of the civilian population as they imported a lot of people in nearly 10 years of rule and the existing population in Crimea, Donetsk and Lugansk since 2014 didn't have too many issues with foreign rule anyway other than dragging the men into militias.
From all I can gather, the Ukrainians have been suffering fearful casualties--largely from Russian mines and artillery--in their recent offensive and have been resorting to press-gang tactics to replenish their losses, taking disabled guys and whatnot to replenish their diminished ranks. It's sort of looking as if "The West" is backing a losing horse.
One of the latter group, ironically, was a Jew. He killed himself when his Jewish background was going to be revealed.
