Russian sources claimed that Popov’s car exploded near the Avanhrad stadium in Luhansk Oblast, killing Popov.[90] The LNR Investigation Department of the Russian Investigative Committee announced that it opened a criminal case under the article of a “terrorist act” in connection to the explosion that killed Popov.[91]

    Russia now has 375,000 KIA while Ukraine's numbers are about 40% of that figure. Our Putin trolls will not like these truthful numbers being told but these are indeed the best independent estimates available.

    The lyrics of an Al Stewart song come to mind.

    ". . . And far away behind their lines the partisans are stirring in the forest
    Coming unexpectedly upon their outposts, growing like a promise
    You'll never know, you'll never know which way to turn, which way to look you'll never see us
    As we're stealing through the blackness of the night
    You'll never know, you'll never hear us. . . . "

    Ukraine Conflict Updates
    Unspecified actors, likely Ukrainian partisans, assassinated a Russian occupation official in occupied Berdyansk, Kherson Oblast on March 6. Russian and Ukrainian sources reported that unspecified actors planted and detonated a bomb in or near a car in occupied Berdyansk, killing occupation election commission member and Berdyansk occupation deputy mayor for economy, agriculture, and finance Svetlana Samolienko.[71]

    "In war, truth is the first casualty." -- attributed to Aeschylus, the Father of Greek Tragedy.

    Even Radio Free Europe (a NATO-friendly media site) indicated less than three weeks ago that the number of Russians killed since the beginning of the 2022 war is 45,123. Link: https://www.rferl.org/a/russia-war-deaths-ukraine-45000/32828776.html

    Even so, your figure of 375,000 (you didn't mention your source) is a bit low compared with the number given by the Official Site of Ukraine statistic for Russians killed: 414,680! Link: https://war.ukraine.ua/faq/what-are-the-russian-death-toll-and-other-losses-in-ukraine/

    Do you remember how many American military personnel were killed in all (ALL) of World War II? 407,316.

    It's a 'given' that wartime propaganda is the breeding ground for the greatest number of lies that mankind is capable of -- and that's WHY one should cite his sources in debates (or risk being laughed out of the discussion altogether).

    Yes mate - the Azov Nazi and ISIS gather in basements .. plotting the terrorist plots but, these terrorist acts have only served unify the Russian People .. the punishment of Ukraine for each attack 100 X .. and only providing more fodder for Vlad's insistence that these terrorists must be moved out of range .. the front line pushed back to Kiev if necessary .. and in the nearer term Odesa.

    Will be tougher to launch these attacks in the Black Sea once Ukraine loses direct access to the Sea . will be a huge lose for Ukraine .. a blunder of Historical proportions letting it get this far .. its like Genocide Joe and Zelensky don't give a hoot about Ukraine ... not doing what best for the nation .. some other political interest in play. Zelensky looking forward to retirement in some Condo in Maui.

    Nowhere is safe for the Russians.

    Ukraine Conflict Updates


    Ukraine’s Main Military Intelligence Directorate (GUR) reported that it blew up an electrical substation in occupied Sevastopol, Crimea, on the night of April 2.[72] Ukrainian outlet Suspilne Crimea stated that the attack caused temporary localized power outages in part of Sevastopol.[73] GUR sources did not specify how the GUR agents damaged the substation. Sevastopol occupation governor Mikhail Razvozhaev denied reports of an incident at the substation and claimed that power outages were the result of an accidental short-circuit.[74]
