NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has announced that the monthly casualties of Russian forces in the ongoing Ukraine war have increased dramatically. He confirmed that these shocking numbers actually exceed the total Soviet military losses during the ten-year Afghan war.
According to the provided statistics, Russia is currently losing approximately thirty thousand soldiers on the battlefield every single month. The NATO chief described these figures as highly significant, noting that Russian troops face massive and deadly risks at the frontline.
The Soviet war in Afghanistan lasted for nearly a decade and was one of their longest military conflicts. Today, the intense war in Ukraine is similarly imposing immense economic and military pressures on the government in Moscow.
