1 Lakh Russian Soldiers Killed in Ukraine Says a US Report
President of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the US Army, has said that more than 1 lakh soldiers in each of the armies of Russia and Ukraine have been killed or injured so far in the war.
It has been almost 9 months since Russia attacked Ukraine. During this, there have been reports of Russia's attacks and sometimes the Russian army's tremendous bombing of Ukraine. During this, both countries have been making claims of causing massive damage to each other's armies. Now, for the first time, a senior US general has presented a report on this issue. General Mark Milley, President of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the US army, has said that more than 1 lakh soldiers in each of the armies of Russia and Ukraine have been killed or injured so far due to this war. Apart from this, about 40 thousand civilians have also died due to the war. Notably, General Milley is also a senior military adviser to US President Joe Biden.
However, just two months ago, Russia denied reports of massive damage to its army in the war.
At that time, Russia claimed that only 5,937 of its soldiers were killed in this war between February and September. However, even at that time, military experts had raised doubt on Russia's claim and feared more damage to the Russian army. General Milley was speaking at an event in New York. The war will end only when the two countries understand each other. General Milley believes that the war between Russia and Ukraine could almost end in the winter. During this time, both countries can understand the importance of finding a solution by sitting at the negotiating table. And this may turn out to be the end of the war.
