A Wagner mercenary fighting in Ukraine had only a 1-in-5 chance of making it through unscathed, according to the latest figures.
The unverified numbers, posted on Telegram by several Wagner-affiliated channels, claim that in all operations from the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion up until the “capture of Bakhmut” on May 20:
· Wagner had 78,000 thousand fighters in total.
· 49,000 of these were convicts.
· 22,000 were killed.
· 40,000 wounded
This leave just 16,000 that made it through the fighting without being killed or injured.
The figures appear to have been released in response to Russian Ministry of Defense claims that 33,000 Wagner fighters had signed contracts with the Kremlin in the wake of the aborted coup attempt by the group’s chief, Yevgeny Prigozhin.

Unlike you, I’m a US citizen and Veteran.

Look it up on urbandictionary.com. That’s what I just did.
I brought up Poland. I know you’re ESL, but if you’re going to post here, at least work on comprehension.
Yes, you brought up AIDS in Poland in response to Wagner claiming +60k losses in Ukraine. Very logical. But given that AIDS rate in russia is 20 times higher than in Poland and in Poland it comes from what you said... then what does it tell us about russia ?
There are certain strains of bees that are more likely to carry it and there are certain flowers that inexplicably tend to try to attract those bees for pollination.
They paid the toll.
Don't know what you mean by that, or why I'm first on your little list. But meh....
Oh.. subtle but I think I get your drift.
Aye.
Beat the crap? After 10 months they still never fully controlled bakmut and with those numbers “ beating the crap” has taken a whole new meaning
“2nd greatest military” required mercs to get their big “win”, and now that Russians are holding the line not looking so stronk
The map leads to certain speculations... not conclusions, that’s up for analysis.
- That Slavs need to be Catholic to avoid, er, doing gay things.
- That Slavic countries of the “old school” have a huge intravenous drug problem. Well, this seems to be true on the whole, as all drug use as well as alcoholism is extremely high.
- That drunkenness leads to particularly poor behavior that gives them AIDs. What behavior that is I decline to speculate.
The first casualty of war is the truth
Anyone thinking they are getting honesty out of either side is a damn fool
The figures were published by Wagner.
Pretty sure that was pregozians numbers not Ukrainian, so I guess he is part of the cabal now?
Pretty accurate list I would say
🤔🤔🤔
How about the ukr-nazis post their own casualty numbers for a change?
You’ve got to remember the massive bloodletting of Wagner and Russian troops during the fighting on the road to Moscow during last months civil war. Probably tens of thousands killed before Putin came back after fleeing Russia. This latest shovel full of disinfo is as credible as BS that was being trafficked during the eight hour mutiny.
Massive death toll conflated with wounded toll. 20 percent unscathed doesn’t mean 80 percent dead.
