So far, deaths of at least 34 foreign mercenaries on Ukrainian front lines have been confirmed. However, the main threat for foreign fighters are regular strikes of Russian missiles on Ukrainian military bases hosting foreign militants.
As a result, mercenaries are less and less eager to go fighting in Ukraine. From July 8 to August 9, only 175 new volunteers arrived in the combat zone. During the same period, the number of foreign citizens fighting alongside Ukrainian forces decreased by 549 people.
The AFU losses in foreigners, including dead and those who left Ukraine, is increasing every month. LINK
