俄国国防部长本人9月21日，就俄国统计的乌军伤亡数字说：
“最初，乌克兰武装部队的人数为201,000至202,000人，此后他们的损失约为100,000人，有61,207人死亡，另有49,368人受伤。

俄国国防部长还说 “消灭了2000外籍雇佣兵”，并说此时乌克兰武装力量里还剩下约1000外国人。但乌克兰动员了数十万乌克兰人充实乌军。
Shoigu added that Kiev has since mobilized hundreds of thousands more men into its forces.
The Russian forces and the militias of the People’s Republics of Donetsk and Lugansk have also eliminated more than 2,000 mercenaries fighting for Kiev, the minister said. Just over 1,000 foreigners currently remain in the ranks of the Ukrainian military, he added.
