I equate Propaganda with Fantasy

 However, my wife says that Propaganda is what destroys the truth.

For example, 1 million Russians have died already in the war with Ukraine.

And 31,000 Ukrainian Soldiers have died so far.

why have 1 million Russians died in this war?

Because they were sent into battle with no training at all. Some had never shot a rifle before and some who were captured by Ukrainians had said they had shot 4 bullets with a gun before being tricked into battle against their wills into Ukraine.

So, Russian Propaganda kills mostly Russians in the Ukraine War at least at this point.

Russian Soldiers are a complete disaster for Putin.

If Putin is winning it is ONLY through Missiles and Drones. That's all that's really happening now. 

Here is a Quote regarding Ukrainian deaths from Google AI for example:

AI Overview
Pinpointing the exact number of Ukrainian deaths in the war is challenging due to the ongoing conflict, lack of access to occupied territories, and conflicting reports from various sources
. 
However, based on available information, here's a summary of the estimates:
Civilian deaths
  • The UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine (HRMMU) has documented at least 13,580 civilian deaths, including 716 children, and 34,115 civilian injuries as of June 30, 2025.
  • The Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) recorded 13,341 civilian deaths as of May 31, 2025.
  • Reports indicate that the true number of civilian deaths is likely much higher than official figures, particularly in areas under Russian control, where independent monitoring is impossible.
  • A Project on Defense Alternatives study calculated a "modest" figure of 40,000 Ukrainian civilian deaths by April 2023. 

Military deaths
  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated in February 2024 that 31,000 Ukrainian soldiers had been killed since the start of the full-scale invasion in February 2022.
  • Open-source data from UA Losses estimates 73,920 Ukrainian military deaths (including non-combat fatalities), 75,253 missing personnel, and 4,578 captured as of August 7, 2025.
  • Other estimates, potentially citing different time periods or sources, suggest figures ranging from 43,000 to 100,000 Ukrainian military deaths. 

It's important to remember
  • These figures represent the confirmed minimums, and the real numbers are likely significantly higher due to the difficulties of gathering accurate information during wartime.
  • Data from different sources can vary due to differing methodologies, reporting timelines, and access to information. 

In conclusion, while a definitive number is unattainable, the war in Ukraine has tragically claimed the lives of tens of thousands of Ukrainian civilians and military personnel, and the true toll is undoubtedly far greater.
