Nobody answered me. Is there PROOF of the 50% claim here?

How can I view non-biased information about the war?

wikipedia napkin math. with 1.15 million and at least two million reserve personnel.

~3.15 million personelle. ukraine hasnt killed that many; probably around 300k. their probably talking about the number of troops in ukraine. which is probably around 700k for the duration of the war. if you count just the 1.15mil is probably close to it now.
