I'm so curious to see the leaked data, but when I search for it the disinfo comes out on top atm.
You gotta wonder why the bots are claiming loss numbers that are obviously silly. Only 17K Russian deaths? Yeah okay. Seriously, why do they bother?

So, I think I figured out how these edited casualty counts came about.
The first public mention of them was through the pro-Russia Donbass Devushka Telegram channel. How did the channel get her?
A pro-Ukraine troll group on Telegram made them as a joke, and sent on to her. https://twitter.com/AricToler/status/1644139100407054336

The leaked Ukraine/Russian casualty *numbers* are themselves hilarious:
16k - 17.5k (RU)
61k - 71.5k (UA)
Notice anything "weird" (or should I say "palindromic") about these pairs of numbers?
