Where do these stats come from? Is it Russia themselves counting losses and publishing them?
These numbers are from Ukraine. Personell losses are necessarily an estimate, but probably not completely off the mark.
Russia or Ukraine do not publish daily numbers of their own losses.
No, General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine publish them every day.
These are published by Ukraine's defence ministry, I believe
Ukraine. They are definitely propaganda numbers, but in the past, the Ukrainian numbers for enemies killed closely matched US/NATO numbers for total casualties (killed, injured or captured).
