Russian war obituary rates through Nov 2025. Rate ~2.5xBakhmut peak & been high for months.

Many recent obituaries are older, but it looks like Russian strategy change during 2024 increased meat cost.

Ukraine's equivalent site gives Ru:Ua ratio of 2.8:1 in 2024 and 6.5:1 2025. Likely a data issue.

Think of every missile Russia launches at Ukraine as a dozen families in Russia having to live in squalid conditions for another decade or more. Russia can either be at war or take care of itself. Not both.

🇺🇦🇰🇿 Strikes on Novorossiysk. Ukraine reminded what "concerned" Kazakhstan lacks.

"We separately draw attention to the absence of previous statements by Kazakh side condemning strikes by Russia on civilians in Ukraine, residential buildings, civilian infrastructure and energy system of our state."

Putin’s envoy Kirill Dmitriev claims he received a U.S. Chamber of Commerce award “for leadership in U.S.-Russia dialogue.”

He noted over 150 U.S. companies still operate in Russia, 70% for more than 25 years, and blamed Biden’s policies for $300B in lost profits.

Propaganda spin at full tilt.

1\ Bloomberg's report on Russian oil deliveries is still not showing a consistent pattern of effect of the new sanctions.

The FOB prices used in Russian tax calculations are down by a lot for Urals and a bit for ESPO. That's great!

Brent is down ~10% since early August, Urals ~40%.
Russian Oil Flows Extend Slide With Prices Retreating Again Too
Shipments fell by 530,000 barrels a day since latest US sanctions were announced

And this, my loyal serfs, is why losing control of the Black Sea matters. Back in 2022 at the end of the grain deal we said "we won't guarantee the safety of shipping in Black Sea". My trolls paid no attention when Ukraine replied "neither will we".

They should have.

Ukrainian forces released videos of the operation against the two oilers Kairo and Virat in the Black Sea which tried to reach the Russian coast.

The message is clear:

If you are a shipowner trying to get Russian oil, expect that you will lose your whole ship.
