It is impossible to accurately determine the number of Russian and Ukrainian casualties in the war, as this information is a state secret — something that can be used either to boost or undermine troop morale.

However, from time to time, someone or some Russian department releases bits of information that allow us to get an approximate view of these figures. For example, at the beginning of 2024, a department within Russia’s Ministry of Defense accidentally disclosed that 75,000 Russian soldiers were “missing in action” — information that was quickly deleted from the website, but not before it was seen and captured.

Now, another clue has emerged: Russia’s Ministry of Labor has ordered the issuance of 300,000 certificates of permanent termination of employment for men who were registered in the “special military operation,” the term Russians use to describe the invasion of Ukraine.

These certificates are issued when a worker can “never again” return to their activities, which means they are either dead or have suffered extremely severe, permanently disabling injuries.

These certificates do not include those who are “missing in action.”
