Reply to comment by nick4fake in Russian President Vladimir Putin unwittingly accelerated the European Union’s green transition with his war in Ukraine, with the 27-nation bloc reducing its dependency on Russian fossil fuels and increasing its renewable energy use over the past year, the EU’s climate czar said Tuesday. by MrGuttFeeling

There's that many casualties, but not that many dead. A lot of those are injuries as well. The deaths are somewhere around 60k depending on source, which is still tragic and staggering.

Ukraine's numbers might be high (145 k dead russians) but I don't think they are that far off. The battlefield is filled with dead russians and they are being sent in wave after wave wothout protection and proper equipment.
