Warsaw: Independent Russian media outlet Mediazona said Saturday according to its estimates more than 66,000 Russian military personnel have died during the war in Ukraine.
Mediazona has been drawing up a list of known soldier deaths in conjunction with the BBC Russian Service using open-source data.
Previously in April, they announced they had found more than 50,000 names of Russians killed.
Mediazona said Saturday that "as of August 30, we know the names of 66,471 Russian soldiers killed in the war".
The list has gone up by more than 4,600 in the last four weeks, it said, while stressing this was not a definitive figure since many soldiers' deaths are not made public.
