Russia’s war dead tops 70,000 as volunteers face ‘meat grinder’ | BBC News
More than 70,000 people fighting in Russia’s military have now died in Ukraine, according to data analysed by the BBC.
For the first time, volunteers – civilians who joined the armed forces after the start of the war – now make up the highest number of people killed on the battlefield since Russia’s full-scale invasion began in 2022.
BBC Russian and the independent website Mediazona have collated and identified these names.

How many Ukrainians soldiers died? BBC thinks people are stupid.
BBC is a total disgrace. What a stupid and poor journalism. Doing all what they cann try to make please think Ukraine is winning.
Bbc has gone too low and irresponsible
Better shut up
Russia won't lose no matter what
These "democracies" are so funny, they clean up the comments under their videos
This is BBC not reality. We know the west with their media
How many people died when british troops colonized africa..20mn.
Two goats 🐐 cannot agree on peace that's making 70000 families fatherless
Useless
😢😢😢😢
These numbers don't mean much, the real numbers are much higher. Lets recall all the Russian Z-ombie circus when Ukraine claimed to hit their flagship "Moscow":
"No, Ukraine doesn't have such capability"
"No, Ukrainian attack was successfully repelled: no damage"
"No, There is only a little smoke"
"No, Moscow is going to port for a paint job"
"No, Moscow is being towed to port due to a mechanical issue"
"Ok, Moscow sunk due to big waves, 1 sailor died"
LOL
Lies we know you people how do things
Russia’s war dead tops 70,000 because of Brit who's name is Boris Johnson.
Why are the news all lying? The death toll between Russian and Ukraine is 6.8 million.
They know that I know,I know that they know.So they want us to feel stupid.(Burning Spears)
The whole world knows the the truth.
BBC we are tired of your hypocrisy.
You can do better than that 😮
Ukraine is kidnapping every human balls on the street😂😂😂
I keep hearing 500, 000 Dead Russians. I saw a report about the "body collectors" who try to identify the dead on both sides. So many Russians already skeletons with some having no "dog tags" to identify them. Only their uniforms and equipment to identify friend from foe. Why this huge discrepancy in number?. The Russians are still using WW2 tactics with poorly trained troops and equipment.
Hold up here, Russia lost 70k ppl?? What's the death count of Ukrainians to date??
Verified- the actual number is 4× more.
russian rubbish
Things are the other way round but it was said more than one hundred fifty but now seventy thousand
70k is probably the number of new graves in Russia. From the daily videos we see there is 20-30 every day and of course whats being videoed is only a small part of whats going on, also there is tens of thousands of bodies not being collected, many cannot be collected unless you want to play puzzles while being pewpewd at. True number is probably 200k-400k.
Путлер Капут!

Information about Russia's economy!
Trade between Russia and the EU grows for the first time since November 2023
Russia's exports increased by 21%, to €3 billion (more than R$18.3 billion), while those from the EU grew by 24.5%, to €3.03 billion (almost R$18.6 billion).
Among the main trading partners, the biggest growth in July was recorded with:
1.Finland, with a 3.1-fold increase to €226 million (around R$1.3 billion);
2.Croatia, with a 2.7-fold increase to €58 million (around R$355.1 million);
3.Romania, with an increase of 2.6 times to €41 million (around R$251 million).
However, trade almost doubled with Sweden (around R$848 million), the Czech Republic (approximately R$1.4 billion), Ireland (almost R$490.5 million) and Spain (more than R$ 2.2 billion).
I see diversity has superseded professionalism where BBC News is concerned.
BBC propaganda
600.000 , 70.000 is absolutely officialy confirmed. We need to stop Russian madness NOW!
This comment has absolutely nothing to do with the video you only partially watched before heading to the comment section. Please ignore it and move on.
I thought there were over “1,000,000” unalived Russians according to western sources?
Is it 70,000 or 700,000,… ???
From war analysts and intelligence sources, the total could be 700,000 not 70,000.
🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦💪💪💪💪
Unnecessary. Wake up, Russian. All this death for a small piece of Ukraine Putin lied about?
Meat grinder tactics are lies…in war tht attacking army always has more dead than the defense…so stop spreading lies
