No, you're misunderstanding. 'Casualties' means 'One who is injured, killed, captured, or missing in action through engagement with an enemy'.
You're using the word to mean 'dead' and that is incorrect.
Additionally, it is extremely difficult for a side to accurately determine opfor dead vs. wounded. IIRC 3 wounded : 1 dead is a reasonable approximation.

This isn't a news community. It is a Ukrainian one. The preface "Russians say..." is all that is needed for desirable participants to understand the rest is BS.
You are spamming. Move on.
Edit: Oh, and FTR

Recently, we spoke about the state of Russia's economy after more than two and a half years of war. It was characterised by strong growth but also signs of overheating, as the economy ran at or beyond capacity. Today, I want to cover the other side, and look at how Ukraine's is holding on after extensive Russian pressure. I'll look at headline economic indicators, the budget, defence production, and the impact of attacks on Ukraine's energy grid.

I don't think so. Got it from a royalty-free site.
I flipped the image r to left think it would look better on the right bar where you usually see it and that might be what's weird.
Edit: oh, I think I f'd with the tint or something to make it a F up as a joke.

Different server and mod(s). Pretty much was created because that TIFU didn’t show up on my searches for whatever reason. TBH its too early to really say. Hopefully it gets used more.

It was a PITA to fall asleep last night but I do feel better today thanks. It only hurts when I move now.
So, as was walking my two English Setters as I normally do when one of them decided to take a dump in my neighbours grass. They are young and not as well behaved as I'd like, but, did sit when I commanded so I went about fishing out the bags from my pocket. So happy was I that they had the sense to relieve themselves so close to home that I failed to appreciate why they were both fixated in the same direction. Had I simply taken the time to see what they were looking at I'd have realized there was a new pair of dogs being walked around the corner across the street and had my guard up. Just as I stooped down to pick up their mess they both simultaneously launched themselves at full force to go meet the newcomers, taking me with them... No, seriously I was like a bobsled being dragged behind a team of huskies only instead of snow it was cement I was sliding over. I let go of the leashes, yelled for them to come back (which they of course ignored) and got up to give chase. By the time I limped up to them they had happily made 4 new friends (2 of whom I thanked for grabbing their leashes). Went back and cleaned up the original mess and hobbled right back home to clean myself up. Both my kneecaps are entirely covered in scab and the underside of my entire right forearm/palm had to be bandaged by Nurses and wrapped. I am in so much pain right now.

While Ukraine has taken a small piece of Kursk
That 'small piece of Kursk' is more territory than Russia has gained between their Kharkiv withdrawal and subsequent slow grinding offensive.
The losses are for less than nothing. Even with their seemingly inexorable advance they've lost overall territory and fighting ability relative to Ukraine. I still project Russia has maybe 2 years tops of fighting left but so long as Ukraine limits their withdrawal rate to what we've seen of late they will win.
