6. Russia has been losing something like 400-500 men a day in Ukraine, so far

that estimate may be a little on the high side, but probably not by much.

19. A very unsavory organization

"The Wagner Group was reportedly founded by Dmitriy Valeryevich Utkin, a veteran of the First and Second Chechen War... The company's name comes from Utkin's own call sign "Wagner", reportedly after the German composer Richard Wagner, which he is said to have chosen due to his passion for the Third Reich (Wagner being Adolf Hitler's favorite composer) As such, some believe him to be a neo-Nazi, with The Economist reporting that Utkin has several Nazi tattoos."

"Early in 2020, Erik Prince, founder of the Blackwater private military company, sought to provide military services to the Wagner Group in its operations in Libya and Mozambique, according to The Intercept."
