The numbers being talked about in the US regarding the losses Russia has suffered in the war in Ukraine since February 24 are “bogus”, according to the Russian Presidency.
“Ultimately, this is not US government data, but newspaper reports,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said yesterday. “In this day and age, even the most reliable newspapers do not hesitate to spread lies of all kinds. Unfortunately, this is a practice we are seeing more and more often.”
Mr Peskov made the comments in response to a New York Times report on Russian casualties in the conflict, Russian news agency Interfax reported.
Democratic congresswoman Elisa Slotkin said yesterday on CNN that “we have been informed that over 75,000 Russians have been killed or injured”, a number she described as “huge”. Ms Slotkin had previously attended a briefing on developments in the war by Joe Biden administration officials, the contents of which were in theory classified.
