Russian KIA+WIA losses in conservative estimates were 40K but as more and more info came out its likely closer to 60,000+ casualties because of how many storm troopers were needed to overwhelm defenses.

People in general simply cannot grasp the scale of this war. Especially in Europe. When the last one in the Balkans, throughout the 90s (edit) caused over 250k casualties in 10 years.

Babe wake up new war archive video just dropped

[@torkilvold3855]

1:13:55 Pyrrhic victory? That remains to be seen, the war is far from over. The main force fighting for the russians in this battle was the Wagner group, which consisted of mercenaries and convicts. They where, as you stated in the video, expendable. Perhaps there was a tactical reason to sacrifice this force in this way, in order to gain an advantage in the long term? The russians have used the time this battle has lasted to recruit more soldiers. And they have worn down the ukrainians, and some of their equipment. The ukrainans are almost entirely dependent on the west for new equipment, weapons, amunition etc. The russians have their own production, and they have been increasing it. So it's easier for the russians to replace the losses in equipment than it is for the ukrainians. This goes for soldiers to. Obviously Russia has a larger population. It seems to me that some of the most motivated soldiers on the ukrainian side, both ukrainian and foreign in origin, have already volunteered to fight. It's an advantage for the russians in the long term that the most motivated ukrainian soldiers are killed and wounded, even if this means taking higher casualties themselves, if these casualties are mostly mercenaries and convicts. For the russian leadership it makes sense to exchange 7 convicts/mercenaries for 1 higly motivated and trained ukrainian soldier (even though i doubt the ratio was this severe in the ukrainian favour). The dead costs nothing.This is of course a highly cynical view, but this is war. The russian leadership are of course aware that the ukrainian morale is an important factor here, especially in the long term. And there seems to be cracks in morale appearing as we speak. Let's see what the mood is in Ukraine in 6 months or 1 year.

[@AsdrubalBarka]

The guy would have changed the outcome of the battle as an ukrainian victory if he could get away with it.

[@FINSuojeluskunta]

The actual choices Ukraine has at its disposal to win are pretty much nil, its best strategy is a fighting retreat making Russia pay for every meter. The strategy of Bakhmut was bad but the alternative is only relatively better. Ukraine has bad demographics but remember that, while both sides have easily lost 100k+ men respectively, Russia is destroying its economy (Ukraine's is already destroyed) for basically nothing important as Crimea is already taken. It's not a Pyrrhic victory though, no.

In this way it would be easier to keep the track on the timeline of the battle, it would be easier to watch, you would make more overall views, attract more audience due to regular uploads and kept us interested. You would have more space on your analysis, showing of videos and speling interesting history detailed facts rather than updaiting the map. I just feel that battle of Bakhmut was too big for one vid.

Did the UK and US somehow convince Russia to invade Ukraine?

[@juliantheapostate8295]

@@Shankinator-zx4tp Yes they did, in a way. Their Maidan coup convinced Putin a 'preventive' war was necessary. The definition of 'preventive' is the from the Realist school of geopolitical analysis (Mearsheimer et al)

[@Shankinator-zx4tp]

@juliantheapostate8295 My understanding of the events is that the president of Ukraine made an unpopular (understatement) decision to side with Russia instead of the EU because of Russian pressure. The president of Ukraine was deposed after mass protests, and Russia exploited the political turmoil to take Crimea. Unsurprisingly, this was unpopular with Ukrainians, leading them to pursue further relations with the EU/US instead of Russia.

[@Broken_dish]

such great detail thank you for your hard work. 👍

[@Madaoke]

Did you see the amount of groups Ukraine sent there? No way in hell did they lose less than Russia certainly with the artillery difference.

[@chasedavis9707]

your source is that it doesn't sound right so with no evidence Ukraine must have more loses even though the Wagner leader said he lost 20,000 men. Now Ukraine has never gave a official report on how many Ukrainians died in bakhmut so maybe it is bigger but thats just conspiracy theory reasoning not actual sources to prove a point.

@@DruM261 Choke on Drum, Russians don't need propaganda to win a war, they just do. @Madaoke, I agree, this is just a video made out of ukra propaganda to the point that if they could they would changed the outcome of the battle to an ukrainian victory.

[@user-yz1zt1nq1p]

@@AsdrubalBarka its not that bad though, anyone with a brain can see the losses and result by the unit rotations

[@AsdrubalBarka]

@@user-yz1zt1nq1p Exactly, not many analise what they see, therefore videos like this increase the support for a war that is already lost. Better to run out of ammo and surrender, than running out of people. Even as a pro Russian, i dont want to see the ukranian youth slaughtered for Nato interests.

[@Reptilian.cricket]

People dont understand that when Prigozin was saying he has no ammo, he was just baiting more Ukranians into city to bombard the sht out of them...

[@Terranallias18]

Why did he mutiny then?

[@Reptilian.cricket]

@@Terranallias18 he was wierd man for sure, God knows what he wanted. But bombardment of Bakhmut didnt stop for a second nor did it slow down or anything per soldiers reports. So it was just a trap to get more Ukranians in literal hell. He also didnt care for his own loses bcs his conscripts were mostly people form jail. So it was indeed blady battle. In this video Ukranian casulties are miles off...

A reasonable assessment 😂 That is, Western sources, recognizing the superiority of Russian artillery over Ukrainian artillery by 1/9 and 100% superiority of Russian aviation, say that Russia lost 7 times more The Ukrainian Armed Forces are semi-encircled

My only criticism of this great series is that 50% of the videos are just you saying various units names. Maybe just say “3 battalions moved in” and just show their names in the video as you do and don’t take the time to read out their names every time.
