- Russia's military death toll in Ukraine has now passed the 50,000 mark, the BBC can confirm.
In the country's second 12 months on the front line - as Moscow pushed its so-called 'meat grinder' strategy - the body count was found to be nearly 25% higher than in the first year.
BBC Russian, independent media group Mediazona and volunteers have been counting deaths since February 2022.
Russia has declined to comment.

Neither Russia or Ukraines _"Official Losses"_ make sense
Because it’s lies and propa.
You need to Understand that it is a post USSR era war, between post USSR countries: both Russia and Ukraine were parts of Soviet Union... tactics were Implemented in accordance with region in which they were fighting, against people/soldiers they were confronting.
This is not official. Its a research by prowestern media
No. They don't. Nothing does in this war. The war where you never actually see much real combat. A lot of fakery for the cameras. Don't make me laugh with the replies either. I know when soldiers are playing it up for the media.
@@AndrePepinkNot much makes sense in this war. And I know when soldiers are asked to pretend for the cameras.
A shocking waste of men's lives on both sides.

ah yes "50,000 dead" does that mean the other 406,000 are "missing in action"

50k identites verified is not the actual death count
@@touch_iron2469Meanwhile is it still 31000 for the other side. Yeah. Sure.
These are Ukraine's numbers, so that mean it is way less than 50k.
@@100apOf course it is. For most of the last two and a bit years it has been the Ukrainians charging Russian artillery. It is laughable propaganda at this stage.
Huh I thought it was 300k according to this same media
this is just what they were abdle to verify despite Russia doing everything they can to hide the information from leaking.
Total casualties and KIAs are not the same thing.
Don’t believe this propaganda channel,
They lies sometimes
I know this might be a bit confusing to you, but injured, missing, captured and dead soldiers all together are generally called casualties, and that number is certainly higher than 50 k by now. It doesn't mean they are all dead.
The number of confirmed dead is 50 000.
Hope I didn't confuse you more.
No lol, that's the Ukrainians loses, but either way, Europe and Europeans need to wake up! Russia is not the enemy, hence stop with this BULLSHIT!
The Way BBC is able to get supposed Russian Loses but unable to get real number of Ukraine Loses, is amazing, it seems, Ukraine soldiers are spirits.

Sad for these poor men, most of whom had somebody, or many family members who loved and depended on them.
The Russian Armed Forces fired missiles at the location of French mercenaries in Slavyansk, controlled by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
It is interesting to know the statistics of the deaths of foreign fighters in Ukraine.
I just wondering how bbc knows that
Never question the BBC!!!
Zelensky claimed around 800k in active service but had suffered only 31k casualties so far. Then why does he need an additional 500k??

All those graves in russia are regular army soldiers,tens of thousands of conscripts bodys lie in the fields and towns of ukraine those who were sent on mass.

Russian leadership is to blame, and if their past military strategies are anything to go by, we’ll likely see casualties in the millions.

50k by Russian war standards is pretty minimal.
I highly doubt that
Only 50k??
Why would they need to mobilize another 250k, if the original 500k only lost 10%?

Watch the video. The 50k figure is verified deaths only and doesn't count casualties. The real number will be much higher.
Initially there were no more than 150k soldiers

Жители Донбасса свергали промайдановскую власть и брали правление в свои руки, защищая себя и родную землю. Кстати, бунты шли и на Западной Украине, и в Центральной ее части. Там уже майдановцы брали штурмом здания администраций, но по мнению Киева «это другое».

The BBC is hereby informed that Ukraine has lost 500,000 soldiers and still counting.
Last year I heard 500k n can I can the 'Russian separatist who are Ukrainian' are Russian soldiers too?
Is it 50k or 500k?
500k is estimated killed, wounded, missing and POWs. 50k is confirmed deaths. The real death toll is higher as many of the dead are listed as missing or no one knows they were at the front in the first place (prisoners). Also Wagner and other PMCs are not a part of Russian Army so Russia doesn't consider them as their own casualties.
