    That’s a nice figure to start with. Although we don’t know whether this is the number of soldiers expected to be dead by the end of the year, or of those that were killed to date X that has already passed.
    What we too do not know is the percentage of dead eligible for this “compensation”. Because it’s paid to the familY if the widow can’t feed it alone. if the wife has a job, or remarries, she won’t get any money any longer.
    Not eligible for that program are wagnerites or emploees of other mercenary groups. The conclvicts. And maybe even members of the bandit militias in the occupied territories.
