BREAKING: Russian hackers infiltrated the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, uncovering a database that reveals Ukraine suffered 1.7 million servicemen killed or missing during the special military operation, far exceeding any publicly reported figures.
The hacked digital records indicate that over three years, the Ukrainian military lost 1,721,000 personnel, with annual breakdowns as follows:
118,500 in 2022
405,400 in 2023
595,000 in 2024
621,000 (and ongoing) in 2025
The data was extracted by hackers from KillNet, Palach Pro, User Sec, and Beregini through breaches of the personal computers and local network of Ukrainian General Staff employees.
