Sounds about right. And I’m pretty sure aligns with what DR has been saying in his thread.

The numbers of dead referenced for Ukraine are numbers I’ve seen cited based on official counts. ~30k/month.
 Quoting: Guythu


The man in the video is quoting Russian KIA estimates for Ukrainian soldiers. US estimates are 100 KIA daily, with 100 - 300 WIA. No estimate on captured.

Also, the Ukrainian KIA rate was lower and the Russian KIA rate higher when the war first started, but Ukraine's rate has grown rapidly over the past few weeks. So it's a mistake to use the calculation of 500 or 1,000 per day since the beginning of the war. Kyiv's official statement of total KIA since the war began is 10,000. So the average would be approximately 100 KIA per day since February 24th.

Allowing for propaganda on both sides, with the Russians highballing KIA rates and US/Ukraine lowballing KIA rates, I would say that a figure of approximately 50% of the stats quoted in the video is probably more accurate.

As for his claim that Lithuania has cut off rail access between Russia and Kaliningrad, that is a huge exaggeration. Lithuania has stated that it will ban the transit of materials covered by EU sanctions against Russia, which is not a blanket ban as implied by the man in the video. Now, this is still a situation that Russia is not going to like, since the ban covers coal and construction material. But it's not as bad as he makes it out to be. Roughly about half the goods transported between Russia and Kaliningrad are still allowed transit.

The man in the video quite obviously hates the Biden administration with a passion, so while it may or may not be true that he is receiving no monetary compensation from his YouTube channel, he still has a clear political agenda which must be taken into account when analyzing his statements.

I'd rate the accuracy of his statements as questionable and his bias as moderate-right. I could post further analysis of his statements, but I think I've made my point.

Up to 1,000 Ukrainian soldiers are being killed or wounded each day in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine, with 200 to 500 killed on average and many more wounded, a top Ukrainian official said on Wednesday

The article says "up to 1,000", with an average of 200 to 500 "killed or wounded."

That high figure *might* be the case over the past couple of weeks, but it certainly was not that high early in the war.

thanks riff and guy for your insights--I follow him because he's in Ukraine and actually was arrested by the ukie secret police....

my big concern was him implying escalation of hostilities to include the US mainland if things go south in Lithuania...

TB, good to see you posting...hope you find a new place soon...

as for me and hubs, his recovery has been slow...and keeping me very busy...Idk if I mentioned that they screwed up his meds for awhile, prescribing heart meds that aren't supposed to be crushed---which is the only way he can take meds through the feeding tube...played havoc with Blood pressure; could've been worse...I have been up most nights and struggling to get enough sleep


CC and alll, appreciate any and all positive thoughts and prayers...
