Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said that 300,000 reservist will be mobilized. Conscripts and people currently studying will not be send to Ukraine. He also said that, so far, 5,937 Russian soldiers have died during the war in Ukraine. (This number does not include the militia of the [[DPR]] and [[LPR]], or the [[Wagner group]], who have done most of the frontline work and thus have had higher losses.) Shoigu puts Ukrainian losses at some 62,000 killed and some 50,000 wounded. Russia's total military reserve, people who have previously gone through military training, is 25 million. It also has the equipment to arm those forces.
