Probably better to link the [Economist article itself](https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2024/11/26/how-many-ukrainian-soldiers-have-died).
Their data generally aligns with what others have found (eg. Carnegie Institute). Thus the ratio of dead can not be more than 2:1 in favor of Ukraine, and is most likely closer to 1.5:1. Total casualties (wounded + dead) seems to be almost close to even.
The implication here is pretty huge – at this stage in the war, Ukraine is probably losing more soldiers than Russia is, given that we know Russia suffered pretty badly in the beginning of the invasion, plus the bloody battles for Bakhmut, Mariinka, Avdiivka, and beyond.
The MIC ain’t gonna feed itself!
