According to estimates by the Ministry of Defense in London, between 40,000 and 60,000 soldiers and mercenaries have died since the start of the war in Ukraine. The total number of dead and wounded on the Russian side was estimated at 175,000 to 200,000. In Wagner’s private army, the “loss rate” is probably up to 50 percent
This Friday is the first anniversary of the start of the war. Neither Russia nor Ukraine have provided official figures on the total number of dead and injured. The British also did not publish estimates of the number of victims on the Ukrainian side.
Very high casualty rate since partial mobilization
The report continues that the number of Russian casualties has increased enormously since the partial mobilization in September. Since then, considerably more reservists with a lack of military experience have served in the war. According to the British, the number of victims is very high by today’s standards. This is probably the result of insufficient medical care. The British Ministry of Defense publishes information on the course of the war on a daily basis, citing secret services. Moscow accuses London of a disinformation campaign.
