Only Russia knows exactly what and how much they & Ukraine lost
Everyone else is just guessing.
Ukraine does not know exactly how many of its own troops are killed because it does not return to the areas it abandoned to collect bodies of its dead troops, after getting defeated by Russians. The more Russia win territories, the more Ukraine does not know how many losses.
So it classify them as "missing". Not dead. Families still continue to get salaries months after troops gone "missing". Only when Russia return their bodies back to Ukraine, or confirm their identities, do the families stop getting salaries & get a one off ex-gratia payment.
