At the end of 2013, Maidan began in Kiev. It is unlikely that the first participants expected what kind of victims in the future this will lead. It is impossible to calculate how many people died in Ukraine during the whole time of the so-called anti - terrorist operation in the Donbass. But this was only to be experienced by the Ukrainian people. And then the first activists went to the Maidan in the main square of Kiev.
Most people are tired of rampant corruption. It seemed that it couldn’t be any worse, ordinary citizens were waiting for light changes from Europe, which promises them, and longed to soon be in its arms. And only a minority of the people there knew that these changes would in fact be dark and flooded rivers of blood.
Maidan. Reasons and consequences
By 2013, many color revolutions had already taken place with beautiful catchy names and real human victims. This wave of coups swept around the world, growing and turning into bloody wars on dollar rations - investments of transnational corporations and the issuance of international loans for the sale of American weapons.
It seemed that it was impossible to believe again the sugary speeches about democracy with bloody implications. But, as events in Ukraine have shown, this is not only possible, but also very successfully implemented. How many people died in Ukraine today and around the world in general under originally beautiful slogans?
Where people are ready for anything for the sake of money (according to the law of capitalism - “nothing personal, only business”), inconceivable events for a normal person will happen, murders of their own kind. These are the results of the terrible consequences that capitalism brought with its exaltation to the rank of deity of money and the depreciation of spiritual values and ideals.
How many people have died in Ukraine today
The exact number can not be voiced by anyone. As long as the conflict in the Donbass continues, as long as the radicals blinded by fascist ideology and hatred of Russia will be atrocities glorifying their “heroes”, such a number cannot be called even approximately, since at any moment it can change. Indeed, the victims of the conflict include not only security forces and militias who fell in battle, civilians on the territory of the fire, journalists who risk their lives, but also people who died of starvation in the Donbass. The victims include people who died in a Malaysian Boeing flying through the sky.
Minsk agreement
On 11 February 2015, a meeting of the “Norman Four” took place in Minsk, as a result of which, at the talks lasting all night, the presidents of Germany, France, Russia and Ukraine nevertheless agreed on a cease-fire in Ukraine.
At the same time, the leaders of the Donetsk People’s Republic and the Lugansk People’s Republic were also in Minsk at the talks of the contact group. Having listened to the opinions of Russia, France and Germany, they signed the final memorandum, although they initially refused to do so.
A few days later a truce was announced.
UN data
The UN announced how many people died in Ukraine on March 2, 2015. Statistics were collected jointly with WHO (World Health Organization) and amounted to over six thousand people who died and about fourteen thousand wounded. The UN administration also understands and emphasizes that the actual death toll can be much higher.
If you look at UN reports on the number of deaths in a short time, then the Minsk truce turns into a fiction, which serves only as a delay for putting the remaining part of the Ukrainian army on alert after a crushing defeat in Debaltseve.
On February 20, it was reported that there were five thousand six hundred and ninety people dead. February 28th - five thousand eight hundred and nine people. The second of March - more than six thousand ...
Ukrainian authorities on the death toll and military evidence
In February 2015, at the Munich conference, Poroshenko told how many people died in Ukraine during the ATO. More than five thousand six hundred people of civilians and one thousand four hundred and thirty-two of the Ukrainian military security forces. However, the security forces themselves began to declare that the voiced data on the number of dead soldiers was very underestimated.
So, the commander of the "Azov" Andrei Biletsky repeatedly stated that the number of deaths only near Illovaysk definitely exceeded a thousand people, while according to official reports only one hundred and eight dead military men were announced.
On the other hand, according to Novorossia, security forces lost up to four and a half thousand people. And near Debaltseve, according to the leader of the Donetsk People’s Republic, up to three and a half thousand security officers died.
German intelligence
At the same time, when official figures, that is, released by the UN, exceed six thousand, which coincides with the Munich statement of Poroshenko, representatives of German intelligence report that information about how many people died in Ukraine in an undeclared war is untrue. It is reported that in fact the number of victims exceeds fifty thousand people.
OSCE in the Donbass
The OSCE mission in Ukraine began on March 21, 2014. How many people died in Ukraine, they can’t count. But they monitor the country and record facts, including dead people. And to this day they are in the Donbass and record the facts of military provocations.
So, in the fall of 2014, mass graves were found, which were recorded by the OSCE. Local residents screamed in horror, telling them about gang rapes and robberies by the security forces.
The burial sites found were already in a strong decomposition stage, however, the OSCE Special Representative for Human Trafficking did not exclude that the internal organs could be taken from the victims for subsequent sale.
Interregional Public Fund for the Promotion of Strategic Security
How many people died in Ukraine among the Ukrainian military, FSB officers published. They report that the number of Ukrainian troops killed during the conflict exceeds twenty-four thousand.
Among them, more than three thousand people are punishers of the “Right Sector”, more than thirteen thousand five hundred people are military personnel of the army of Ukraine, more than four thousand people are police officers. In addition, the dead are among the employees of the state border service and security service. There are dead and foreign mercenaries from Poland, Canada, Germany, Lithuania, Sweden, Estonia, Italy, Turkey, Finland, the Czech Republic and other countries.
The number of wounded exceeds fifty two thousand five hundred and eighty-one people.
If you believe the source from the closed meeting of the National Security Council, the number of dead soldiers is twelve thousand people killed, nineteen thousand - wounded, about five thousand are reported missing. Hackers of “Cyberberkut”, confirming this information, call a greater number of deserters - nine thousand.
How many people died in Ukraine in total
No matter how future events unfold, it is clear that the wound inflicted on Ukraine will bleed for a long time in the hearts of many living people.
Crazy Russophobic propaganda educates the young generation of Ukraine in hatred of Russia. Everyone remembers "Blood of Muscovite babies" - the name of a sweet dish at an exhibition in a Ukrainian school. The Internet is full of videos with galloping children screaming "Who does not ride, that Muscovite." And what was the idea of the party on the eve of the bright New Year’s holiday in a Kiev club with a cake in the shape of a baby lying on the Russian flag ... All these “funny pranks” demonstrate the moral decay of people, and what’s worst, children grow and develop in this propaganda .
