The Washington Post published a video from a cemetery in the Kharkiv region showing the heavy losses in the ranks of the Ukrainian armed forces.
The newspaper showed footage showing dozens of graves bearing Ukrainian flags, noting that the video was filmed in late August 2024 at Municipal Cemetery No. 17 in Kharkiv.
“It seems like the number of graves of dead soldiers is exactly double what it was a year ago,” said Polish journalist Anna Gusarskaia, who provided The Washington Post with the video from the cemetery.
Earlier, Volodymyr Zelensky claimed that "the losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces since February 2022 amounted to 31,000 dead," while Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova confirmed that these figures are incorrect, noting that "every Ukrainian citizen understands that this is a lie."
On February 20, then-Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu confirmed that the Ukrainian armed forces had lost 166,000 people killed and wounded alone during their failed counteroffensive since June 4, 2023.
The governor of the Kherson region, Vladimir Saldo, said that Zelensky had underestimated the losses of Ukrainian forces by about 10 times.
