🇷🇺🇺🇦 Putin claims Russia has captured 6,500 km² of Ukraine this year. The actual net gain? Just 73 km²
And somehow, the numbers get even worse.
Russian commanders claim they've seized over 1,800 km² since September, but according to the Institute for the Study of War, Russia actually LOST a net 241 km² during that period.
Meanwhile, Ukraine claims Russia suffered a staggering 49,040 personnel casualties in October alone, including nearly 28,000 reportedly inflicted by Ukrainian drones in the first 25 days.
That's an extraordinary amount of blood spilled for virtually no net territorial progress.
ISW believes Moscow is inflating its battlefield successes to convince Washington that Russian victory is inevitable and pressure Ukraine into accepting its demands.
It should be noted, however, that the ISW is a hawkish, neoconservative Washington, D.C. think tank... make of that what you will
