As of mid-March, Russia lost nearly 100,000 troops on the front line over the previous three months. Constant pressure from fiber-optic drones, precision bomb drops, and artillery has created conditions in which Russian troops increasingly understand that evacuation is unlikely. A new unofficial “instruction manual” circulating within Russia’s army advises: finish off your wounded comrade, then take your own life. Russia's own battlefield loss ratio has shifted so that of 100% of Russia’s total battlefield losses, 62% are killed and 38% are wounded. 90% of Russian losses on the battlefield were caused by Ukrainian drones.
A new unofficial “instruction manual” appears to be circulating within Russia’s occupying army: finish off your wounded comrade, then take your own life, Ukraine’s Air Assault Forces said on March 22 as they published a video they said showed the practice. The military warned that the footage contains disturbing images.
“A real conveyor belt of self-destruction — this is the occupiers’ new ‘manual,’” the Air Assault Forces said. “It is brutally simple and terrifying at the same time: finish off your wounded comrade and then put a bullet in your own head.”
According to the Ukrainian military, constant pressure from fiber-optic drones, precision bomb drops, and artillery has created conditions in which Russian troops increasingly understand that evacuation is unlikely.
“While Ukraine’s Armed Forces fight for every life and pull their own soldiers out of the hottest positions, the enemy is simply erasing itself — platoon by platoon,” the statement said.
In February, Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi said that in 2025 Russia’s battlefield losses had, for the first time, exceeded the number of new recruits it was able to mobilize.
Digital Transformation Minister Mykhailo Fedorov has said one of the goals set by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is to eliminate 50,000 Russian troops per month.
On March 10, Zelenskyy said Ukrainian intelligence had obtained important documents showing how Russia assesses its own battlefield losses. According to him, the ratio has shifted so that of 100% of Russia’s total battlefield losses, 62% are killed and 38% are wounded.
On March 17, Zelenskyy said Russia had lost nearly 100,000 troops on the front line over the previous three months. He added that 90% of Russian losses on the battlefield were caused by Ukrainian drones.
As of the morning of March 22, according to Ukraine’s General Staff, Russia lost about 940 troops over the previous day. Since Feb. 24, 2022, Russia’s total losses are estimated at 1,287,880 personnel

Logistics is the unglamorous half of every campaign, and casualty evacuation capacity often says more about an army's real condition than any headline figure. Posts that dig into the numbers behind the claims are rare. And for a short break between reads, this casual arrow game works well.
The 62% casualty figure really puts the evacuation debate in perspective. Logistics and evacuation timelines matter far more than most public commentary acknowledges, and pieces this data-heavy deserve a slow second read. I usually decompress after long analytical reads with quick visual experiments — lately playing around with a make photo low quality tool before jumping back into heavier articles. Thanks for the detailed breakdown.
