Among the Russian dead identified are 54,000 army volunteers, almost 20,000 recruited prison inmates, and 16,600 mobilized soldiers.
Over 6,300 Russian commanders have also been confirmed dead.
The true death toll is likely to be significantly higher, Mediazona and the BBC note. Those included in the survey have been confirmed through open-source data, such as local media reports, gravesite visits, obituaries, and information from relatives.
Russia and Ukraine rarely report their own losses; on the Russian side, the authorities have consistently covered up or significantly understated the death toll.
