Newsweek has finally shed light on the devastating losses that Ukraine has endured. Shockingly, leaked reports from the BBC reveal that in the first year of the conflict, a staggering 17,500 Ukrainian troops lost their lives. But the recent failed offensive has unleashed an even greater tragedy, resulting in an additional 50,000 casualties.
The heart-wrenching toll stands at a horrifying 70,000 Ukrainian soldiers dead and 120,000 wounded. These numbers are already staggering, but the reality may be even grimmer than what the media is willing to acknowledge.
Douglas Macgregor, widely regarded as one of the most accurate war analysts, suggests that the true casualty count for Ukraine may be around 400,000. This is a stark reminder that the situation is far worse than what has been revealed.
The question that echoes in our minds is this: How many more young men and women must lose their lives before we can secure a lasting peace? The time for negotiations and an end to this devastating conflict is long overdue.

The real numbers are significantly higher than this. @DougAMacgregor who has been the most accurate war analyst by far, say real estimations are about 400k casualties for Ukraine.
This is just what the media are starting to admit.
It’s way worse.
