I realize this is lazy, but I did try to wiki this and I don’t know if the numbers are accurate and it’s pretty complicated to read.

I want to know the numbers on both sides. I realize this might seem a little unsensitive and there is a story behind every number, but I still want to know the human cost of war. Because it does look like it’s one of the worst wars in terms of human cost in recent memory. Now, how many people have died in the war and are we doing everything we can to end the war?

Edit: War Casualties Stands at 500k (Russian + Ukrainian, excluding civilians), this number is from the https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/18/us/politics/ukraine-russia-war-casualties.html

I doubt the Ukrainian Death count mentioned here, 70k (200k casualties), I doubt if the death toll among the Ukrainians are that low.

Just to put things into perspective 58,220 US personnel died (Fatal casualties) in Vietnam which lasted close to a decade.

Edit 2: Abandoning this thread. I got my answer and I have been using Lemmy a lot these past days (and that’s not good. We all have better things to do than sit infront of a computer)
