The way you select these casualty numbers depending on who reports them is...odd
It seems to be attempting a different narrative then the current reality on the ground.
Ukraine lost a lot of soldiers the first few days of the war due to Russia's first strike and many being in un-defendable positions. Most of these reported losses from Ukraine are visually documented by 3rd party. Russia leaked a report that their KIA were 12K soldiers and 4K mercenaries dated March 19, showing that Ukraine's numbers are very close to reality.

Heck, remember that 40 mile long infamous convoy that was talked about so heavily early on?

Fully cut off and encircled as of today. Russians on the north front are in danger of being fully annihilated.
Outside of Mariupol and some areas in the south, Russia is doing very poorly. Even Mariupol despite Ukraine forces running out of supplies, Russia have yet to do urban combat (which would have a very high attrition rate). Kharkiv sits just 40km from the russian border, and Russians have been repelled to well outside the suburbs, with towns being recaptured.
Russia has lost all hope of landing any objective, Mariupol being the only city in danger of falling in the near future. Kherson may even be recaptured in the new 2 weeks.
This is going atrociously poor for Russia and it's only getting worse.
