Why not do one for Ukraine, and one for russia? It would give an active look into how the war is playing out almost in real time. I know russia losing 1000+ everyday sounds like a lot, but what's it relative to? Is Ukraine losing 50 a day? 500 a day? 2000 a day? I honestly have no idea, and I don't know any unbiased news sources to follow the war in real time. Last I heard Ukraine invaded russia almost a month ago. Thats the last I heard.
There's a saying that when war breaks out, the first victim is the truth.
That said the Ukrainian numbers about Russian losses seem pretty accurate, when compared to numbers from for instance Pentagon or UK defense.
The Russians however have been shown to basically always lie and mislead. So even if Russia did release similar numbers for Ukrainian losses, they would probably be pretty worthless.
The best resource for that type of info is Oryx's visually confirmed list. They have one for both Russian losses and Ukrainian losses. Every link is to a picture or video of the loss; click a few. Then just scroll and scroll and scroll.
