Zelensky announced the dead of the war in Ukraine
In an unprecedented move, Zelensky pointed to the number of Ukrainian casualties and said that about 43,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed since the beginning of the Russian attack.
According to RCO News Agency, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced in a social media post that 370,000 more people were wounded in this war, although this figure includes soldiers who were wounded more than once.
He also claimed that 198,000 Russian soldiers were killed in this war and 550,000 others were wounded.
Of course, the BBC News channel, which published this report, cannot confirm the announced statistics.
While both Moscow and Kiev regularly publish casualty figures from both sides of the war, they do not mention the details.
This new statistic is a significant increase in the number of Ukrainian deaths since the beginning of this year.
The last time Zelenskiy updated the number of Ukrainian casualties in the war was in February, when he said 31,000 people were killed.
The Ukrainian president is believed to have made the decision after announcing new casualties, as US President-elect Donald Trump wrote on social media that Ukraine had lost a ridiculous 400,000 soldiers in the war, and nearly 600,000 Russian soldiers as well. were killed or wounded. Of course, Trump did not say where he got this statistic from.
Trump, whose campaign slogan was to end the war in Ukraine, also said that many were killed in this war for no reason.
Zelensky’s statistics of Russian casualties are similar to what senior Western officials claimed and estimated that Russia has about 800,000 casualties, including dead and wounded.
The British Ministry of Defense also claimed that Russia suffered 45,680 casualties in November alone.
According to the latest claims by British defense intelligence, 1,523 Russian soldiers are killed or wounded every day.
In the meantime, the Ministry of Defense of Russia announced that more than 38 thousand Ukrainian soldiers were killed or wounded in Kursk alone.
