After just three months of war, the Russian army’s losses in Ukraine are likely to be as high as the Red Army’s losses in the Soviet war’s nine years in Afghanistan. British intelligence experts appreciate this, according to a statement from the Ministry of Defense in London on Monday.
The high loss rate is also increasing in the Russian offensive in Donbass. The reason for this is a combination of factors such as poor tactics, limited air superiority and a lack of flexibility.
British intelligence experts believe that the many Russian deaths are likely reflected in public perception. “The Russian public has historically been sensitive to casualties in wars,” the statement said. With an increasing number of deaths, discontent among Russians could also increase and the willingness to express this could grow.
