Russia and Ukraine have different claims of how many people have died in the conflict. The BBC explores the data.

A Russian air strike on a building in Lysychansk, Luhansk, killed four hiding there. In nearby Severodonetsk, two more died, after a day of Russian shelling. Another died as Ukrainian forces bombarded the outskirts of Donetsk city. A further four were killed when Russian forces opened fire in Sadivska, in the north-eastern Sumy region.

The southern and eastern areas of Ukraine, along the Russian border where the main ground invasion began, have borne the brunt of the violence. Mariupol, in the south-east, Kharkiv, in the north-east, and Bilohorivka, in the east, have seen some of the heaviest casualties.From Acled's totals, BBC News has identified about 3,600 civilian deaths as of mid-June, while the UN has confirmed about 4,700 during the conflict up to the end of the month.

It's 2022. The truth was probably the first casualty. What we do know is that the one death that might have saved many others has evaded this war.

That would be reporting the facts. Something the Beeb news lacks.

USA 🇺🇸 and UK 🇬🇧 stop fueling WAR.

BBC why don't you show how you are using same photographies from bombing in Irak, Lybia,Syria,Yugoslavia like the are in Ukraine?

Does anyone actually believe the 💩 that the BBC post anymore!!!

So glad Stiller could visit for his fix.

No

🙏💕

Even if there was an accurate number, the BBC would probably treble it because they are a force for misinformation not the truth any longer 👍👍

Too many + all the deaths were needless. When a rabid dog starts killing people, how many they is not the factor in whether or not you put the dog down.

So sad. Peace not war.

Depends who you ask.

Too many

Practically impossible to have the exact figure of those who have died?

try. its your job.

In this war why no politician is not dying ? Why the innocent people are being killed ? What is their fault ?

400-500 people are dying each day in the UK from COVID19 - where is the BBC report on that? - CovidIsNotOver
