    Also the war is brutal and a lot of the casualties from Ukraine are generally self censored. Conscripts are mostly put in with territorial defense forces which get the shitty gear and little training and they are mainly used to hold the front line and generally don’t have many options if they Russians decide to attack their fortifications.
