One Million Russian Troops Killed or Wounded in Ukraine War, Study Reveals
The ongoing war in Ukraine has resulted in devastating losses for both Russia and Ukraine, with the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) estimating over 1 million combined casualties for Russia by this summer. This includes an estimated 250,000 Russian soldiers killed, a figure surpassing all Soviet and Russian war deaths since World War II by a factor of five. Ukraine’s casualties are also substantial, with a projected 400,000 total casualties. These figures highlight the immense human cost of the conflict and Putin’s disregard for human life.
