It took me a second to realize, that’s *just deaths*. At its peak in past years, Russia was losing 1500 casualties (dead + wounded + missing) per day, but now it’s 1000 deaths, *not including* other casualties.
Their total losses could easily be at 2000 per day now.

How accurate can this be?

He didn’t say 1,000 “dead” per day. The headline did. As much as I want this to true (God forgive me), it’s a misrepresentation of facts/data.
The “good” news is, by WWII standards for every one KIA there’s 3-4 WIA (200-250 KIA to 750-800 WIA), but in the modern Russian Federation’s case it’s reported to be 1 to 1 (50%-50%).

Where does this “1.000 dead per day” number come from? Even the daily number provided by the Ukrainian Military pretty constantly reports around 1.000 casualties for months and has done so in recent days also.
What would have changed that we should expect 1.000 dead instead of the usual 1.000 casualties?

Not enough…
That’s great news! Isn’t it?
That’s about 365,000 a year, isn’t it?
