Russian soldiers dead in Ukraine war number 352,000: analysis

On May 8, Russia and Ukraine agreed to a U.S.-backed three-day ceasefire, which both countries soon accused the other of violating. Russia’s defence ministry accused Kyiv of more than 23,000 ceasefire violations, while Russian drone strikes in areas along the front line resulted in three deaths, Ukrainian officials have said. Those violations have jeopardized an agreement to swap 1,000 prisoners and put negotiations on hold.
