Up to 350 thousand: The Ministry of Defense of the British named the losses of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation from February 24 (photo)

Among the Russian officials, there is a low level of understanding of total losses due to the "formed culture of dishonest reporting in the army", according to British intelligence. From the beginning of a full -scale invasion of November 2023, the armed forces of the Russian Federation could lose up to 350,000 soldiers. This was reported at the UK Ministry of Defense in X (Twitter).

The Britain's Defense Ministry stated that from February 24, 2022 to November 2023, the Russian army could lose from 180 thousand to 240 thousand people wounded and about 50,000 killed. Wagner's private military company probably lost about 40,000 fighters wounded and 20,000 killed. British intelligence believes that in total, the Russian side could have from 220 to 280 thousand wounded and about 70,000 killed. "This gives about 290,000 to 350,000 total losses of Russian militants.

The median of the range of estimates is 320,000 total losses of Russian fighters," the intelligence report reads. The UK Ministry of Defense added that a low level of understanding of total losses is traced to the "formed culture of dishonest reporting in the army" among Russian officials.

We will remind, on December 3, the First Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine Lieutenant General Oleksandr Pavlyuk stated that from November 27 to December 3, the Ukrainian military liquidated more than seven thousand invaders. The Armed Forces also destroyed 534 units of weapons and military equipment of the enemy.
