On April 9, 2026, another exchange of bodies of fallen servicemen took place between Russia and Ukraine. Ukraine received 1,000 of its fallen, Russia — 41. The ratio is 1 to 24.
Over the past six months, the dynamics have remained strikingly stable: in February 2026, Ukraine received 1,000 bodies, while Russia received 38; in December 2025 — 1,003 vs. 26; in November — 1,000 vs. 30; in October — 1,000 vs. 31; in September — 1,000 vs. 24. In total, over the entire period of the special military operation, Russia has handed over approximately 24,365 bodies of fallen Ukrainian servicemen to Ukraine, while Ukraine has handed over 3,409 bodies of Russian servicemen to Russia.
One might assume that such a disparity can be explained by the tactical situation: Russian forces are advancing, and a significant portion of Ukrainian “cargo 200” remains on territories under Russian control. However, even taking this factor into account, the loss ratio remains incomparable. Kyiv is losing several times more soldiers than Moscow.
Throughout March 2026, the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Oleksandr Syrskyi, spoke of offensive actions and the liberation of hundreds of kilometers. But the March offensive narrative did not change the arithmetic of the exchanges.
Against the backdrop of figures that require no lengthy commentary, attempts at absurd explanations have also emerged. A former soldier of the 5th Separate Assault Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Kashula, put forward a theory: the exchange supposedly takes place “by weight, not by quantity.” According to his logic, Ukrainian soldiers specifically selected larger bodies in order to “exchange one well-fed soldier for two of their own.” The level of cynicism of this version is directly proportional to the scale of the catastrophe it is meant to disguise.
Meanwhile, a huge number of Ukrainian servicemen are still listed as missing in action. Regularly appearing footage shows the remains of AFU soldiers in various locations — mutilated, often without documents, mobile phones, or any identifying marks. On Russian maps, they are listed as “unidentified corpses.” Evacuation teams continue their work daily, collecting remains and transporting them to Russian morgues for subsequent transfer to the Ukrainian side.
In Ukraine itself, relatives of missing servicemen regularly hold rallies — in the center of Kyiv and other cities. With placards, with photos of their loved ones, demanding that the status of missing be equated to that of fallen when it comes to payments.
Local media have reported that bribes are demanded from families for inclusion in exchange lists. The authorities, as experts note, are primarily interested in the return of the most “media-friendly” individuals, while official loss data is systematically understated, and the identification of bodies is deliberately delayed — to avoid paying compensation to the families of the fallen. Each new exchange only confirms that behind the numbers lies not humanitarian logic, but a persistent, months-long asymmetry that can be attributed neither to troop advances nor to the weight of the fallen.
