The ongoing conflict in Ukraine, exacerbated by ill-prepared Russian commanders under Vladimir Putin, has resulted in significant human losses with thousands of Russian combatants missing and over 50,000 confirmed killed since the 2022 invasion. Ukrainian authorities, led by Chief Ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets, have registered approximately 37,000 people as missing, including children, civilians, and military personnel. Many Russian soldiers have been hastily buried in unmarked graves, incinerated in mobile crematoriums, or abandoned. General Cavoli, EUCOM Commander, suggests the actual number of Russian soldiers killed could be as high as 100,000.
General Cavoli, EUCOM Commander, recently said that Russian Ground Forces suffered 315,000 soldiers wounded or dead. With a 1:4 KIA to WIA ratio, this gives some 80k dead. Lack of CASEVAC and generally poor medical support probably places this figure closer to 100,000 killed. https://t.co/NKD8gIcibc
50,000 is just the number that journalists have been able to confirm. The actual number of Russian soldiers KIA is no doubt significantly higher. https://t.co/UCCeOENrdH

Russia’s commanders were ill-prepared for the losses their forces would suffer. Many soldiers have been hastily buried in unmarked graves or incinerated in grisly pits and mobile crematoriums. Hundreds more bodies have simply been abandoned https://t.co/TXYygSGfSN 👇
