It’s the BBC and it doesn’t have a branch in Moscow, so I don’t know why it’s called the Moscow Times.

> The tally is based on verified open-source reports such as obituaries and court records and includes only Russian citizens. Fighters from the so-called Donetsk and Luhansk people’s republics are excluded.
> The republics of Bashkortostan and Tatarstan and the Sverdlovsk region recorded the highest numbers of confirmed fatalities, with 7,643, 6,599 and 5,386 deaths respectively.
> Moscow, a city of over 13 million people, accounted for 4,520 deaths by comparison, while the republic of Chechnya reported 372
Any foreign fighters (North Koreans, Cuban, Africans…) would also be excluded from the count.

The sad thing about this is that to Putin and the Russian people this 150k is a drop in the ocean!
Stupid blunt WW2 Soviet mass attack tactics have just continued the meat grinder death rate and all because of a Putin driven national paranoia.
Idiots!!
