Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has provided a rare assessment of battlefield losses during an interview with a French television network.

Zelenskyy said an estimated 55,000 of his country’s soldiers have been killed since Russia launched a full-scale invasion in February 2022.

“And there are a great number Ukraine lists as missing,” he told France 2, which translated his comments.

      If it makes you feel better, the post 9/11 invasions by the United States and allies killed way more people. The evil remained pretty consistent.
