There are 28 thousand Ukrainian soldiers in Russian captivity

14

The Commissioner for Human Rights of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, Dmitry Lubinets, said that there are currently about 28 thousand Ukrainian citizens in Russian captivity. Three months ago in Kyiv they said that there were 4337 people, of which 763 were civilians.

It turns out that in three months the Russian Armed Forces captured about six brigades of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Military observer Yuriy Podolyaka noted that the figures indicate the frequent surrender of Ukrainian soldiers. According to him, last summer their estimated number was 10-12 thousand.



Yes, not all of them are military. But more than 90% of this figure is from the Ukrainian security forces (AFU, NGU, police, who are now being thrown to the curb in the thousands, border guards). 28... Essentially, a whole army!

– Podolyaka noted.

Earlier it was reported that the number of Ukrainian military deaths announced by Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky is lower than the data that disposed of Washington in 2023. This was reported by the New York Times. Zelensky said that since the beginning of the special operation, about 31 thousand Ukrainian soldiers have died. This sharply differs from Washington’s estimates, according to which about 70 thousand Ukrainians were already killed last summer, and from 100 to 120 thousand people were injured, the publication emphasizes.

    last summer, about 70 thousand Ukrainians were already killed, and from 100 to 120 thousand people were injured

    And this is only officially from the Americans....

    PS A little armchair analysis - At different times (2023) Zelensky stated that there are 500-700 thousand fighters on the LBS. He also stated that at the beginning of last year the Armed Forces of Ukraine had an advantage of approximately 1,3:1 compared to the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, which numbered between 300-500 thousand (Shoigu). In 2024, the same Zelensky said that the ratio had changed to 1:1,4 in favor of the Russian Armed Forces. Despite the fact that the number of our fighters on the LBS has increased slightly. That is, based on these figures, official figures announced by the top officials of our countries, the total number of losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces exceeded 350-400 thousand. Human.

      Well, good. There are between 100 and 300 thousand personnel left in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, based on these calculations. Against 500-700 thousand from Russia. In such situations, it’s time to launch a large-scale offensive operation like Bagration. The conditions are much more favorable than those of Stalin.

      so this figure is about 500 hundred thousand irrevocable and is being discussed in the media space... 28 thousand is two divisions or eight brigades, ten general regime colonies, and there are also a lot of hard workers who could, for a small fee, restore the cities and towns they themselves destroyed...

    Look... Even I, an old pessimist, thought that there were 6-7 thousand of them, but look how... fellow However, the pig ranger will begin to declare a large figure, and if they return little, then squeal all over the world about the Europigs secretly killed in captivity by the bloody KGB and destroyed in hydrofluoric acid.

    For some reason, we even learn about all our great victories, beneficial from a propaganda point of view, from references to enemy sources. We ourselves don’t say anything intelligible and, most importantly, we don’t show it. And about all sorts of attacks, such as the shooting down of our Avax, we also say nothing intelligible or say nothing at all - stupidity or treason?

      Since the beginning of the special military operation, the losses of the Ukrainian army amounted to 383 thousand killed and wounded. The head of the department, Sergei Shoigu, announced this at the board of the Ministry of Defense.

    Does not work; if we turn to the original source, he, speaking about 28 thousand people, added that this figure includes not only prisoners of war, but also civilians from different professional groups...

      There are no civilians in war. Helped the military? So you are a military man like them. And they will judge you as a military man.

    There are 28 thousand Ukrainian soldiers in Russian captivity

    Will this amount be enough to resume construction of the tunnel to Sakhalin? With such a crowd, they must manually dig it out, with access to Hokkaido...

    If that is the case, Russia has captured as many as Z says were killed, further showing how silly Z's claims are.
