> The most senior US general estimates that around 100,000 Russian and
> 100,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been *killed or injured* in the war in
> Ukraine.
> *Gen Mark Milley, chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff* , also
> suggested that around 40,000 civilians had died after being caught up
> in the conflict.
> The estimates are the highest offered yet by a Western official. […]
> "You're looking at well over 100,000 Russian soldiers killed and
> wounded," Gen Milley said. "Same thing probably on the Ukrainian
> side." […]
> Moscow's last update in September said that just 5,937 troops had been
> *killed* since the start of the conflict, with Defence Minister Sergei
> Shoigu dismissing reports of a significantly higher *death* toll. […]
> Ukraine has largely refrained from giving casualty figures. But in
> August, the armed forces' commander-in-chief, Valeriy Zaluzhniy, was
> quoted in Ukrainian media saying 9,000 Ukrainian soldiers had *died* so
> far.
