I first thought I heard it was 2000 a day, then I thought that can't be right, must be 200... nope, it is. I guess that speaks to how unhinged things are when even I have trouble believing the amount of death that's happening. I doubt the current conscription rates are even close to that.

Ukrainians have announced recently that they are mobilizing 5000 a day, but that's probably just PR. Even if true, the quality of this troops is most likely shit, due to age, health issues, unwillingness to fight and extremely short training.
