Hacked data shows high Russian casualties as Abu Dhabi talks begin

Trilateral talks between representatives from Ukraine, Russia, and the United States have commenced in Abu Dhabi, aimed at addressing the ongoing conflict. According to Ukrainian chief negotiator Rustem Umerov, Kyiv’s delegation is also conducting separate coordination meetings with European allies from the E4 group—comprising France, Germany, Italy, and the United Kingdom—alongside representatives from NATO and the European Commission. The Kremlin clarified that European Union delegates will not directly participate in the primary trilateral negotiations.

Simultaneously, reports surfaced detailing hacked data allegedly obtained from the Russian statistics office, indicating that Moscow has officially registered 400,000 military deaths since launching its full-scale invasion in February 2022.
