[KavkazUzel] The death of at least 2,602 fighters from the regions of southern Russia in the military operation in Ukraine has been officially confirmed, including 1,307 from the North Caucasian Federal District and 1,295 from the Southern Federal District. Dagestan remains the leader among the regions of southern Russia in terms of the number of deaths in military operations.

As the "Caucasian Knot" wrote, by September 24, representatives of the authorities and law enforcement agencies officially confirmed the death of at least 2,550 fighters from the North Caucasian Federal District and Southern Federal District in the military operation in Ukraine. The largest number of dead soldiers (614) was in Dagestan.

The "Caucasian Knot" maintains a name list of residents of the North Caucasian Federal District and Southern Federal District who died in the military operation in Ukraine. The list was compiled on the basis of data officially announced by government officials and law enforcement agencies.

The authorities and law enforcement agencies acknowledged the death of at least 2,602 fighters from the regions of the North Caucasian Federal District and Southern Federal District in the military operation in Ukraine. According to official data, by September 30, at least 1,307 fighters from the North Caucasus regions had died in the military operation.

The largest number of deaths from the North Caucasus Federal District, as before, is in Dagestan: 622 people. In addition, the deaths of 212 fighters from North Ossetia, 170 from the Stavropol Territory, 133 from Chechnya, 107 from Kabardino-Balkaria, 40 from Ingushetia and 23 from Karachay-Cherkessia were confirmed.

At least 1,295 fighters from the regions of the Southern Federal District died in the military operation. Including the confirmed deaths of 510 fighters from the Volgograd region, 298 from the Rostov region, 201 from the Astrakhan region, 219 from the Krasnodar region, 34 from Adygea and 33 from Kalmykia.

Let us recall that the first Russian loss in a military operation officially recognized by the authorities was an officer from Dagestan Nurmagomed Gadzhimagomedov. His death was announced on February 26, 2022 by the head of the republic Sergei Melikov. On February 15, 2023, Ramzan Kadyrov said that regional heads should not report data on the number of deaths in Ukraine. The head of Chechnya urged “not to comment on the losses,” although he himself had previously reported on the death of Chechen fighters.

Caucasian experts previously interviewed by the "Caucasian Knot"  pointed to a lack of information  about the number of deaths in Ukraine. The true scale of losses in a military operation cannot be assessed until its end, said, in particular, Alexey Malashenko. Akhmet Yarlykapov linked the significant number of losses among natives of Dagestan to the fact that residents of poor regions most often go to contract service.
