Russia Ukraine war, page-3885

Russia says 500 of its troops killed in the first week of fighting. An underestimate of course, but telling that the Kremlin would already acknowledge a figure this high. Ukrainian and western estimates are close to 6,000 Russian troops killed in the first week of fighting.

When you add wounded (about 3 or 4 x the killed) as well as the captured and deserted, Russia has lost a fair percentage of its invasion force in just one week.
