What I found strange is that I never believed that Moskovia had more than 4k operating tanks. They surprised me this time.

Very high number of 990 personel lost but only moderate material losses. I guess human lives are cheaper than equipment for the Russians.

If you look at latest Avdiivka charges, it's a meatbath. But so was almost all Russian imperial and Soviet union tactics. By making human/zombie waves they overwhelm atrillery/local defences and inevitably take ground in expense of few hundreds of men. Weird but when there is a shortage of everything except for people its how it goes in all totalitarian institutions.
