Multiple outlets report findings from a new study estimating that the Russia-Ukraine war has produced more than two million military casualties since Russia’s full-scale invasion began in February 2022. The analysis counts casualties as killed and wounded, with some reporting that missing personnel are also included in broader “casualty” figures. The New York Times, Kyiv Post, NDTV, and Breitbart all cite figures indicating Russia has suffered the larger share of losses. Reported estimates for Russia range up to about 1.4 million killed or wounded (and, in some summaries, around 1.4 million casualties including killed, wounded, and missing). Kyiv Post and NDTV also cite estimates that roughly 400,000 to 450,000 Russian troops are killed. Taken together, the sources describe a combined total of over two million battlefield casualties for both sides. The reports present the figures as estimates from the study rather than independently verified counts, and the exact methodology and definitions of casualty categories vary across summaries.
