Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that since the beginning of the full-scale Russian military intervention in his country two years ago, 31 thousand Ukrainian soldiers have been killed, transmits “Ukrainian Truth”.
“Thirty-one thousand Ukrainian soldiers died in this war. Not 300 thousand, not 150 thousand, as Putin and his deceitful entourage lie. But each of these losses is a big loss for us. 180 thousand Russians died,” he said during big press conference in Kiev.
The total loss of killed and wounded in Russia is 180 thousand dead. I don’t know how many missing they have, but I know up to 500 thousand along with the wounded.
Zelensky declined to name the number of wounded Ukrainian soldiers, as Russia would know how many people “left the battlefield.” He also did not name the number of missing servicemen.
“We also know about tens of thousands of Ukrainians killed in the occupied territories,” Zelensky also noted.
