Bloomberg: More than 11 thousand foreigners from hundreds of countries died in the Russian army in the war with Ukraine.
Rosstat recorded the deaths of 11,335 foreigners whom Moscow lured by force, fraud or money to fight for the "Russian world". These are people who were born outside of Russia or have foreign citizenship, reports Bloomberg. The data is taken from Rostat's database which includes more than 11 million death certificates and related information, such as citizenship, place of birth and death. They were obtained by the Belarusian group CyberPartisans and the Ukrainian hacker group Silent Crow, who shared the information with the media.
The deaths are directly related to the war, as the documents refer to "special military operation", "shelling", "UAVs" or use appropriate codes when describing the causes of death. Deaths were recorded between February 24, 2022 and the end of August 2026.
