Data leak reveals up to 450,000 Russian deaths in Ukraine

A massive breach of Russia's Rosstat has exposed data suggesting up to 450,000 Russian citizens have been killed since the Ukraine invasion began in February 2022. Belarusian hacker group Cyberpartisans BY and Silent Crow claim to have stolen ~23 terabytes of data. If verified, it would be Russia's deadliest conflict since World War II.
