An investigation into Russian medical records suggests 2025 has been the deadliest year for Moscow's forces since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine began.

An investigation by the open-source intelligence group VOID indicates that 2025 has become the deadliest year for Russian forces since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine began. Medical facilities across dozens of Russian regions are reportedly overwhelmed by an influx of wounded service members.

Researchers compiled their findings by examining public procurement registers, local administrative documents, official medical reports, and social media updates from healthcare institutions. The gathered data points to a significant increase in the operational burden placed on Russia's medical infrastructure as casualties mount from ongoing military operations.
