Real losses in ATO. The war in Donbass: what losses did the armies of Ukraine and Russia suffer?
During the ATO in Donbass, the Ukrainian Armed Forces suffered significant losses in manpower, and these losses are much greater than what official Kyiv voices.
Official losses during the armed conflict in Donbass, announced by Ukraine, are more than 1,800 people killed and 8.5 thousand wounded, said the head of the main personnel department of the Ukrainian General Staff, Lieutenant General Igor Voronchenko.
According to the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the Armed Forces of Ukraine suffered almost half of its irretrievable losses outside the battlefield.
“To date, the losses of Ukrainian military personnel over the entire period of the ATO are 1,842 military personnel, 831 are non-combat. 8,519 military personnel were wounded,” said a representative of the General Staff.
Igor Voronenchenko reported that during the entire period of the anti-terrorist operation in Donbass, about 100 thousand Ukrainian military personnel received the status of participant in hostilities. In total, about 129,700 people are eligible to receive this status.
Deputy Chief of Staff of the People's Militia of the LPR Igor Yashchenko at a press conference in early November voiced other real numbers losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces during the ATO. According to him, real losses Ukrainian side several times more than official Kyiv voices.

The current situation in Donbass
The Ukrainian military continues to concentrate forces east of Artyomovsk, in the area of the station. Lugansk, preparing for the offensive, completely blocked the checkpoint and traffic movement from the DPR in the direction of Volnovakha. Columns of BM-21 "Grad" were marching towards Artemovsk in the morning. Artillery, tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers (up to 30 units), as well as Ukrainian Armed Forces personnel, have already moved to the Gorlovka area.
10 tanks took up positions in the village. Dzerzhinsk, 5 km to the contact line. 12 tanks in the area of the settlement. Novgorodskoe, 6 km to the contact line. In the village Nikolaevka, 5 units of BM-21 Grad MLRS were installed, 8 km from the contact line.
In the DPR, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are testing the defenses of Gorlovka, there is a threat of an offensive near Gorlovka - there is a high intensity of fire and the formation of assault battalions by the security forces.
Strikes are being carried out on the territory of the Donetsk airport: mortars, artillery and howitzers, which, according to the Minsk agreements, must be withdrawn from the contact line. In addition, militia positions in the area of Peski and Spartak were fired at from mortars.
Attacks on VSN positions are taking place along the front line around Donetsk: Staromikhailovka, Maryinka, Aleksandrovka, Yasinovatsky checkpoint. Krasnohorivka-Staromikhailovka: shooting battle (large-caliber machine guns, anti-aircraft guns, anti-aircraft guns). Nevelskoye-Staromikhailovka - (mortars). Staromikhailovka is being shelled from tanks from Krasnogorovka.
From the side of Nevelskoye, security forces are firing at positions of the VSN from MLRS.
Near the Donetsk airport, a fighter of the organized crime group “Legion of Freedom”, 93rd Mechanized Infantry Brigade, chairman of the local public organization “Sokol”, volunteer Yuri Cherkashin “Chernota” was seriously wounded. As a result of shelling from Ukrainian self-propelled guns "Akatsiya" near Uglegorsk, two VSN soldiers were killed.
In the LPR, the hottest spots now are the areas of Sokolnikov, Zhelobka, Shchastya, Popasnaya, st. Lugansk. Ukraine made three attempts to infiltrate the DRG. All three groups were scattered or destroyed. There is a high activity of unmanned vehicles of the Ukrainian military. One device was shot down.
Obviously more than official data. One has only to remember how the corpses of Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers were thrown into the Blue Lakes near Slavyansk in 2015. And this cannon fodder was not recorded anywhere.
Or here’s another thing: at the beginning of the war, there were battles in the Amvrosievka area, where, according to Ukrainian media, the Ukrainian Armed Forces suffered no losses at all. However, reports from DPR field commanders indicate that the Ukrainian army lost about 300 people.
At the same time, the families of deceased servicemen receive notifications that their relatives simply deserted, which brings not only shame and grief, but also deprives their family members of the right to at least some benefits and monetary compensation.
Another example. According to official data from the Ministry of Defense, 108 soldiers were killed when leaving Ilovaisk at the end of August 2014. At the same time, Prosecutor General Vitaly Yarema said that about 200 Ukrainian soldiers died there. The commander of the Donbass battalion, Semyon Semenchenko, announced the death of more than a thousand Ukrainian soldiers. And the chairman of the temporary commission of the Verkhovna Rada on the investigation of the causes of the tragedy in Ilovaisk, Andrei Senchenko, reported that during the period from July 23 to August 23, the group of “sector D” of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which took part in the operation in Ilovaisk, was missing 3.4 thousand fighters. Quote: “According to our data, as of July 23, there were 4,000 fighters in sector D; on the morning of August 23, there were 600 left.”
It is worth noting that the lists dead participants“ATO” does not include foreign and local mercenaries, neo-Nazi volunteers, military instructors (like those who advise the Donbass battalion) and criminals.
People whose relatives receive notifications of death with wording that allows businessmen from the Ministry of Defense not to pay the families of the deceased the promised benefits in the amount of 609 thousand hryvnia are also not included in the lists of official military casualties. The wounded near Volnovakha already in the spring of 2014 (!) complained to journalists that they were forced to sign strange protocols in which they were identified as “victims of an accident or accident.” And they mentioned the protocols for examining the corpses, which stated that their combat friends “died under unclear circumstances from gunshot wounds.”
In addition to those whose deaths are recorded in a strange way, hushed up and not included in the lists of the dead, there are also a lot of people on very impressive lists - “missing in action”, “deserted”, listed as wounded (while death from wounds received is a matter of recent times ) and so on.
A number of opposition politicians have repeatedly addressed the public with statements that the authorities are blatantly lying, hiding and understating the real losses of many thousands of their military during the ATO. Indirect evidence in favor of this is the transfer of more and more units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the combat zone, and successive waves of mobilization. In the summer of the year before last, deputies of the group “For Peace and Stability” appealed to the president and government with a demand to declassify data regarding the dead citizens of Ukraine. According to the statement of the co-chairman of the deputy group Sergei Gorokhov, the number of deaths during the ATO amounted to more than 10 thousand people by the beginning of August 2014.
In the fall, even Verkhovna Rada deputy and leader of the “Radical Party” Oleg Lyashko accused the President of Ukraine and the then Minister of Defense of crimes against their own soldiers. Showing the corresponding photos, he said: “Poroshenko and Geletey are blatantly lying, hiding more than 8,000 of our losses in the ATO! These guys gave their lives for them, for the country, for their people. But they and their loved ones did not receive any gratitude or respect from our leadership. Moreover, it turns out that Poroshenko is burning our heroes, like some kind of dogs, in German crematoria! I received a photograph from a reconnaissance satellite, on which you can clearly see a field crematorium near a military hospital in the ATO zone near Novoaidar. As I was informed, this crematorium was handed over to us by Germany...”
Many dead military personnel were not only burned in crematoria, but also buried in the ground without burial marks or identification before death. And not only in the spring and summer, when it was easiest to underestimate and falsify real losses, but also in the fall. For example, on September 22, the authorities of the Zaporozhye region announced the funeral of 55 unidentified bodies of ATO participants. The next day, the Dnepropetrovsk authorities prepared graves for 332 Ukrainian military personnel, of which only 22 bodies were identified...
Simply put, the loss figures announced by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are underestimated not by several times, but by tens of times.
“From the beginning of the ATO to this day, 2,629 military personnel have been killed as a result of hostilities. Of these, 2220 are military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The rest of the dead are from the ranks of the National Guard, State Border Service, SBU, Civil service By emergency situations. 9,453 military personnel were injured, of which 7,674 were from the Armed Forces of Ukraine,” Andrey Lysenko, spokesman for the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, said at a briefing in March 2017 in Kyiv.
This means that the death toll can easily be increased 30 times - this is approximately 78-80 thousand people.
"Cargo 200". Losses of foreign mercenaries in Ukraine FULL LIST." So, how many of them are there, "soldiers of fortune" who returned to their homeland "with a load of 200"?

CyberBerkut hackers partially confirm this information.

SBU: “1,700 SILOVICKS ARE MISSING IN THE SOUTHEAST OF UKRAINE”
The head of the Main Investigation Department of the SBU, Vasily Vovk, said that during the ATO in Donbass, more than one thousand seven hundred security forces went missing.
