COLIN KAHL, deputy minister of the US Department of Defense, said: "Russia is undergoing huge casualties. There are many wars of fog, but I think it can be safely proposed that the Russian side is in less than six months in less than six months. It may have been injured 780,000 people in time. This is the total number of death and injury in the battle. This number may be lower or higher, but I think the number of numbers is like this. "

Carl also claimed that he believed that Russia has not achieved the "any goal" since the Russian and Ukraine conflict, so the number of casualties he guessed would be "amazing". He also attributed this number to Ukraine's morale and fighting willingness. He said that he believed that Ukraine was much higher than Russia's average morale and fighting willingness. He said: "I think this has given the Ukraine a significant advantage."

The report pointed out that the guessing number given by Call was higher than the evaluation given by the US intelligence agency earlier. At the end of last month, William Bernus, director of the Central Intelligence Agency, said that 15,000 Russian military personnel had died in Ukraine and about 45,000 were injured. However, Bernus acknowledged that the information on the number of wounds was estimated to "always give a rough range" and "no perfect figures."

The Congress Mountain News mentioned that starting on February 24th, the Russian army tried to capture Kyiv City and western Ukraine, but it did not succeed. Since then, the Russian army has re -adjusted the tactics and focused on the industrial center of the eastern part of Ukraine -Donbas, and uses remote weapons to combat targets.

It is worth mentioning that the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense updates its version of its version of the Russian army on its official website every day. As of August 8, the number of Russian army called Ukraine had reached 42,340.
