According to official figures, the Russian security forces, including the Ministry of Defense, Interior Ministry and other government agencies, have sustained 4379 KIA, 703 MIA and POWs, and 705 AWL (absent without leave).
The actual number of losses is lower than the published figures by about 1-2% due to some duplicate entries in the statistical data.
The number of personnel losses constitutes between 2 and 4 percent of the total number of troops deployed in support of the anti-terrorist operation in Chechnya in 1994-1996.
