Two years of war in Ukraine: Russia's invasion in numbers

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : 300,000: The number of Russian reservists called up to fight Entering a new phase of public acceptance about the scale of his war, Putin announced a partial military mobilisation in September 2022, calling up 300,000 reservists - a move which prompted a mass exodus of young Russian men.
45% : However a significant number also occurred far from the frontline, with the UN warning that Russia's use of long-range missiles "left virtually no place in the country entirely safe from the hostilities". 505,000: The top end of Ukrainian and Russian troop casualty estimates With Ukraine treating its troop casualty figures as a state secret and Russia's official figures citing a death toll several multitudes lower than any credible estimates, gauging the true scale of death among soldiers in the two-year war is close to impossible.
43% : Nevertheless, the UN has confirmed the deaths of 343 civilians as a result of mines and explosive remnants, with a further 769 injured, with the deadliest regions reported to be Kharkiv and Kherson. 26: The number of Russian warships Ukraine has put out of action While its land counteroffensive failed to produce the lightning gains previously seen in Kharkiv a year earlier, Ukraine has increasingly used drones to strike deep within Russia and - in a major success - to destabilise Putin's prized Black Sea fleet.
