According to his estimates, about 60% (153-164 people) of the missing died and about 40% (109-110 people) were captured.
As PolitNavigator reported, back in November 2014, before the bloody battle for Debaltsevo, Verkhovna Rada deputy Nestor Shufrych announced the figure of losses of the Ukrainian army in Donbass at 14 thousand people.
According to him, the authorities hid this figure so as not to collapse their ratings on the eve of the parliamentary elections.
In total, on both sides of the conflict in Donbass, according to Shufrich, as of the fall of 2014, “tens of thousands” of people had already died.
In October 2015, as is known, another election will be held in Ukraine - this time for local councils.
