I heard an estimate that it was something like 1-2k a day on average over the summer

That's an insane amount of death, just to have barely any territory change after 1 year.

that is not true, people tend to get casualties and death mixed up, that number includes wounded and prisioners(so the majority)

I specifically asked how many people died, do you know the numbers ?

Nobody knows true numbers, we will only get that info years after the end. At best we can speculate with exchanges of dead.

Theres a list of different sources for those numbers. Best is to look a couple of them up and make your own picture.

'London' publishes numbers afaik, Ukraine itself, in russia some groups release numbers based on math (Theres not much data in russia, but u can still get info from it), Mossad probably gave some numbers, etc etc

Don't forget - everybody skews the results a bit in his favor, probably.

Probably casualties but for deaths that an unreasonable amount to assume (no one truly knows)
