So about that meme, about the Ukrainians hanging reactive armour on everything...

  Actually it is surprising pro-Ukrainians have massed all their best technical assets into secondary theater (wuithout much effect, by the way - as there is no visible difference in effect between old T-64 tanks and new Western armor).

Drone videoo of Leopard-2 tank firing point blank at civilians in Dalneye village near Kurakhovo (pro-Ukr controlled territory, indicated by arrow on map below). Reasons are not clear, pro-Russians believe pro-Ukrainias were suspecting locals of desire to wait for pro-Russians to come https://t.me/rusengineer/5726

Also, yesterday pro-Ukrainians have blown Kurakhovo reservoir dam, causing minor (~ +1.2m) flooding downriver in East-to-West direction. Not clear why it was done - in theory, it will prevent pro-Rus forces linking up around Kurakhovo, but at the same time it will cause problems for pro-Ukrainians themselves as will limit their movement (taking into account river is deviding their positions and that key road goes along the river). Some commenters from pro-Ukr side say the dam was blown my mistake, too early

Russian TV is delivering nice news from the Kursk zone claiming that Ukrainian forces have been knocked out of the village of Glushkovo. The problem is, Ukrainian forces never entered it in the first place.

Reminds me of the time Ukraine broadcast film of the 'Free Russian Legion' occupying towns  in Russia  and forgot to erase the street-signs that showed it to be the same Unit training in Chernobyl!

"Russian military officers are engaged in looting in Kursk region." - ex-governor Starovoit.

Former Kursk Region governor and Russian Transport Minister Roman Starovoit has once again confirmed the facts of looting in the abandoned settlements at a meeting with residents of the border region. 
Yesterday, a similar statement was made by Pavel Zolotarev, the head of Glushkovsky District of Kursk Region. At the same time on Monday TASS published a text that houses in the village of Glushkovo were allegedly looted by the Ukrainian military.

Based on what? Again, this is another example of wishful thinking. We cant even guess the magnitude of casualties, but they surely know that this must be the truth, using obscure "sources"...

I just responded to a post from a British study which indicates that the Russians in their current high-tempo offensive operations are suffering about 150 KIA a day, this from a pool of infantry that is maybe 100,000 deep (out of maybe 600,000 total troops).   Factor in severely wounded and it would take a full year of combat in order for a contractor to be killed or wounded in an infantry pool that large.

No, it's 1000 a day.

You are trying to outglenn a glenn?

BBC/Mediazone research is only one that has any background info on their research to back it up and they give 78k Russian dead so far.

An estimate of 78k Russian KIA feels like it's in the ballpark.  Stuart's assertion that the actual losses are 1,000 a day are in reference to Ukrainian claims, and Ukrainian claims have more to do with Ukrainian losses than being serious statements of Russian losses.  1,000 also will include severely and lightly wounded, whereas the 150 (or so) in the British study are only looking at KIA.
