Some 43,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed since Russia's full-scale invasion began, Volodymyr Zelensky has said in a rare admission of the extent of the nation's casualties.
In a post on social media, the Ukrainian president said 370,000 injuries had been reported, though this figure included soldiers who had been hurt more than once and some of the injuries were said to be minor.
He also claimed that 198,000 Russian soldiers had been killed and a further 550,000 wounded.
The BBC has not been able to verify either side's figures.

The numbers look like they have been reversed. No one will know the true numbers for along time.
But we haven't seen Putin's army break yet.
Me, I would go with whatever numbers broadcast by the forever war globalist MI-6 organ the BBC.
I love the smell of bullsh## in the morning
It smells like… victory
And like 10 million have left Ukraine...
I wouldn’t believe a word out of this lying Globalist’s mouth!
I expect that the real number is many multiples of 43,000.
Sadly, it is. :(
4.6 dead Russians for every Ukrainian.
I’ve heard estimates up to 750k dead
—
that’s 750,000 casualties, not dead.
... and how many civilians?
About 51,000 Ukrainians Have Deserted Armed Forces This Year
Ukraine needs 500,000 more troops amid slowing mobilization
.
More like 10x that
LOL!
I suspect their census data will reveal Ukraine has lost several million in population. Probably a million fled the country and the other million killed, wounded or died of other causes (accidents, illness, old age)
I recall reading (no, I don’t have chapter and verse) that Ukraine has lost more than a generation of their people because of the war, mostly men.
We will know nothing about Ukraine and the overall situation until Tulsi assumes control of intel and institutes “pics or it didn’t happen” via satellite recon — rejecting all Ukraine, British, French or any info that is not from recon.
Presume all information pre Tulsi to be worthless.
But look at how many people that have investments in the military industrial complex have gotten richer off taxpayer dollars.
