Oryx has been proven to be providing false numbers well over a dozen times, including in the pentagon documents. Re: Ukraine claims - is that the one where they claimed to have destroyed 4,700 tanks out of 3,500? MediaZona, an organization run by strongly anti-Putin, pro-Ukraine owners in partnership with the BBC, is going to be the most accurate casualty information you can actually get: https://en.zona.media/article/2022/05/11/casualties_eng https://en.zona.media/article/2022/05/11/casualties_eng And please, enlighten me: how exactly are they taking that many tank losses when they’re literally dug in, not moving, and have pulled the tanks back? They don’t even have to fight, the Ukrainians are doing a fine job tripping every land mine in the region by themselves.

They don’t even have to fight, the Ukrainians are doing a fine job tripping every land mine in the region by themselves. Because Russia isn’t dug in and not moving they are constantly trying to counter attack. Not only that dug in tanks and tanks behind the front line are still vulnerable to drone borne weapons which are very popular in this war.
