The personnel number is a bit under what one would hope, as it means a (very) slight replenishment in the Russia's manpower. They are recruiting in the ballpark 1300 soldiers per day, so this means the Russia's army grew by a couple hundred soldiers today. Of course, 1100 lost is 1100 lost, and that means about 300 dead plus about 800 who tell their friends and family that the situation is absolutely not as told in television.

The number of destroyed artillery systems is very good. This exceeds the Russia's production capability by quite a bit. 110 "vehicles and fuel tanks"... I've lost track of what that number means these days... Does it include Ladas and motorbikes? Or only cargo equipment and such? 3 tanks in a day is nice, because that's more than the Russia is producing. My understanding is that they are producing a tank once per day or two days. Or?

Various reports have stated that because of the way Russia does meat assaults it is more like 990 dead and 110 wounded. There is of course no way to know for sure (at least not public information, who knows what classifed data shows).

There are also an unknown number of POWs and surrenders that are not in the 1100 number.
