Official Leaks REAL Russian Casualties in Kharkiv!

a NATO official has leaked the real casualty numbers that Russia has sustained trying to take harke just how bad is it and what’s the life expectancy of these Frontline Russian units hint it’s not long I’m Paul US Army Combat veteran let’s talk about it okay so this is a really interesting story coming to us from uh Ukrainian Pravda and this is an interview they had with a NATO official who has under anony said that Russian forces suffered massive losses during their their attempt to take harke last month and the official said that around 1,000 Russian soldiers were being killed Kia in action in the month of May he said quote I would also add that the gains in harke O blast seem to have almost come at a rather high price for Russia Russia likely suffered losses of almost thousand people a day in May which is quite an astronomical official the figure the official said and noting that he was referring to the number of fatalities that’s what makes this crazy right Russian losses have been across the front line sustained at in the Thousand uh losses per day for some time but what makes this notable is that the fatalities alone are around a thousand now the thought was that Russia was going to when they launched their assault into har that they would H they had around 30,000 troops right the thinking the rumor was that Putin had actually originally planned this assault to be around 50,000 troops but he launched it early because he knew that with the influx of us Aid arriving to Ukrainian units his window was closing that he could uh achieve significant gains against an under equipped Ukrainian military but there were some problems so he launched his assault prematurely right with around 30,000 troops which means that if you took around 1,000 casualties per day right you can also assume that around the another two to 3,000 casualties were incurred uh uh wounded right so you’re looking at around let’s let’s lowball it and say 3,000 casualties a day or 90,000 troops pulled off the front line over the course of the month of May which sounds absurd but remember Russia is bringing in nearly 25 to 30,000 troops every single month so these These are significant losses that will likely Force Russia to sort of backpedal on its planned offensives um in other parts of the front line but they’re not unsustainable losses which is kind of crazy to think you could get again 90 potentially up to 90,000 people in a month pulled off the battlefield and still just kind of Shu it off but what I thought was most interesting is what we’re going to talk about and that is some leaked info from Russia about the strategy they they’re using and just how bad it is but before we talk about that if you’re looking for a strategy to be more effective in your life you don’t need to recruit a bunch of prisoners and send them to their Doom right instead you can just pick up some strike gum this is the zero sugar energy drink alternative owned veteran owned namely owned by

thank you and check us out strike gum.com okay this I thought was really interesting this is coming to us originally from telegram right and this is a uh telegram account of somebody who uh found this is looks like a Ukrainian soldier who found a a manual in a Russian trench where they found quote combat use of an assault company group in offensive a training manual produced this year by the Russian vdv the Airborne forces and this is a training manual uh that sounds like a lot like what um the uh DOD used to call call right during the height of the Iraq and Afghan Wars uh the center for Army Lessons Learned uh would collect the battlefield experiences in real time and consolidate them into simple manuals uh sometimes involving just simple explanations of techniques like how do you clear an IED what’s the current best way to uh secure a a potential IED site um and sometimes even subjective stuff where they would literally interview for example I remember um there was a platoon leaders guide where they would interview platoon leaders in combat and talk to them about just what were some of the the skills that you needed what were some of the hard decisions you had to make take me through those sort of scenarios and they would consolidate them and quickly publish them out they weren’t doctrin they were more like suggestions but they were a way to take what was happening on the battlefield and quickly bring it to the soldiers who were on their way to the battlefield that’s what it sounds like this manual is by the Russian elite elite airborne troops but here’s where I thought was interesting right it’s summarized by The Institute for the study of war and there’s a couple of really interesting aspects to it first off even the elite vdv are relying on what they call assault detachments these are uh low-skilled soldiers who are trained to conduct simple frontal assaults right and we’ve seen them in all of the combat videos but what I thought was interesting is that first off they are used for a handful of key uh missions on the battlefield right uh the capture of individual strong points meaning like a machine gun position or a trench position uh the uh blocking or capturing holding certain areas of terrain that are important um or a more General uh like a like a force where they call Forest protection belt a Windbreak um dominant height forward or building right so these are meant to Simply capture areas or become a blocking element right to to hold a fixed area to prevent reinforcement or to seize a specific type of um entrenched position right so a really narrow set of uses for these kind of of assault groups right uh but they are not they are considered specialized assault units but the point is that they’re not they’re sort of defined by what they’re what they aren’t they aren’t artillery they aren’t uh armor Crews they are very very simple uh line units with basic rudimentary training right and these units that conduct these kind of operations um are actually expected to take massive casualties right Russian high command according to this video expects these company sized assault groups right these are 200 1 to 200 person groups to have a standard service life of 2 days maximum as this is the time frame in which the Russian command is calculated that the assault group will completely expend its combat capabilities during attritional combat operations that is insane guys to be like listen a 100 soldiers who are responsible that’s on the low end guys a US military company would be like 200 but it seems like Russia treats about 100 soldiers as a company now 100 soldiers expecting to take specific individual Ukrainian like a specific Ukrainian held Windbreak a trench line a uh key roadway uh a key set of buildings that they are going to expect to be able to conduct combat operations for 2 days for 48 hours before there is nothing left of them that is an absolutely insane level of attrition I don’t know how else to tell you this right and when you see these types of information get sort of linked together right the high casualties and seems a little Preposterous but then you hear this data and you go man this kind of confirms it right this actually would assume that there’s just a single one of these units being formed put into combat every two days right you I mean I mean do the math with me here right let’s let’s let’s let’s do math I love math in a nutritional Warfare guys the calculator is weapon right so let’s say you have 100 soldiers every two days means 15 days right so you’re losing your company every two days 1,500 soldiers a month and that’s just one company so if you assume then that very realistically that this Russian har offensive has let’s say um you know let’s say there’s 20 of these companies you’re looking at exactly the number that we just came to 30,000 right 30,000 casualties remember expended combat capability does not mean everyone is DOA uh it just means that they have taken so many casualties wounded and killed that they no longer have the ability to fight in a meaningful way um some of them might be alive but it’s a case of like you know if you have one person left in a squad that Squad can’t do anything right uh the squad can’t even evacuate its wounded so I say this because it absolutely explains why the ukrainians are happy to let the Russians continue to push into low value tactical positions because the Russians they’re going to run out of Russians it sounds like an insane strategy but it seems to be going exactly the way everyone expected anyway guys that’s all I had thanks to the colonel tier members thanks to Lieutenant tier members be sure to subscribe to the channel that actually helps and like the video both of those things tell the YouTube algorithm that I make real content and I’ll see you guys in the next one cheers

  1. If true, this is horrifying. The US lost roughly 60k KIA in Vietnam, over about 12 years. Russia is losing that much in 4 months.

    I was told a decade or so ago that a single soldier costs the US about $250k to train. So maybe Russia can do that for 1/10th that cost. That still represents $750,000,000 for one month.

  2. Does Paul realize that Ukraine has claimed this 1000 Russians killed per day since last year So why are they still LOSING ground on EVERY FRONT

  3. According to the ukranian defense ministry they 3500 ukranian soldiers in russian captivity, russian sources claim 25k and from other reports i saw its 18500, they exist no offical number how many russians are in ukranian captivity because they dont publish anything but its estimated to be around 700, alone be this numbers we see who suffers more loses, also when russia lose 1000 man per day be kia, how much lose ukranie?

  4. Why the fuck would a believe a Nato representative. I only watch this to see Paul look depress when the Russians make an advancements

  5. WHERE on EARTH did you get that modified wife-beater tee shirt. GOOD LORD, if you need a decent shirt, just ask, we will pitch in and buy you some clothes………

  6. Has anyone asked where their front line medical facilities are? I understand they abandon a significant number of WIA but they still have to treat many casualties everyday.
