The Scale and Intensity of the Russo-Ukrainian War

The Russo-Ukrainian War has been characterized as exceptionally violent, with more than a million people involved across a vast frontline. The conflict has led to significant casualties, comparable to World War I, with towns changing hands at enormous human cost. The ongoing war has resulted in high troop losses on both sides, with small battles often leading to tens of thousands of troops being lost. Furthermore, Ukraine has made substantial territorial gains, regaining approximately 50% of previously lost land while managing to win critical battles, such as the Battle of the Black Sea despite lacking a navy.
