Russia does not provide any information on how many soldiers died in Ukraine. Now Russian investigative journalists have examined databases.
They show how high the price is that Moscow is paying for the attack on the neighboring country. The exact figure could range between 66,000 and 88,000 dead. The number of fighters killed among the approximately 300,000 reservists drafted into a controversial mobilization in 2022 is estimated at 16,000. In Ukraine there is overall more access to sources, which is why the data set is better than that for Russia.
