With over 660,000 killed or wounded, the disintegrating Russian military has just hit a new and unenviable milestone: It’s officially combat ineffective.

Apparently, 660,000 out of 500,000 deployed Russian troops are out of action. So the Russian army is currently fighting with -160,000 troops.
Literally in the article:
which Ukrainian troops have likened to facing swarming zombie hordes in the movie “World War Z.”
Otoh, back in Nov-Dec, it was claimed that Ukraine's total casualties were 400,000; about 70,000 dead, 130,000 irrecoverable losses and 200,000 recoverable losses.
If that's been increased by another 200,000 casualties over the last many months, then we get to 600,000 or at least 300,000 completely out of action; KIA, DOW and WIA, out of possibly a million men deployed. Makes sense for the Ukr propaganda machine to want Russian casualty figures to be above their own.
Officially too, Ukrainian losses were claimed to be 500-1000 per day before Russia mobilised. Would have obviously been way more than that.

A clue about NATO mercenaries fighting in Ukraine.
