Where in Ukraine most Russian occupants "disappeared" and who is looking for them: data released

Most Russian war criminals are "missing" in Ukraine in the Pokrovsk and Bakhmut districts of the Donetsk region. This region accounts for 55% of all occupants wanted by their relatives from Russia.

The relevant data was published by the state project "I Want to Find", which provides information on missing and killed Russian soldiers in Ukraine. It is noted that in 4 months of work, since January 9, 2024, the organizers have received 10,255 applications.

After analyzing the data, they found out that most of the Russians who disappeared in Ukraine were in the age group of 28-40. The youngest of them was 18 years old, and the oldest was 68 years old.

Of all the occupiers on the wanted list, only 54% had military badges.

According to the organizers, the increase in the number of missing persons began with the occupiers' offensive on Avdiivka in October 2023. December 2023 saw the largest number of missing persons – 16.7%. 81% of people who contacted the project assured that they did not support Russia's war in Ukraine.

Sisters and wives are most often involved in the search for missing persons. They received 27% and 25% of applications, respectively, during the specified period.

According to statistics, the largest supplier of "missing persons" to the occupiers is the "Storm Z" unit, formed by Russians from prisoners. At least 487 soldiers have disappeared from this unit. In addition, 6 of the top 20 units in terms of the number of missing soldiers are from the "L/DPR".

"Men from Donetsk and Luhansk are not spared in the Russian army," the project noted.

The organizers of the project "I Want to Find" noted that the 10,225 applications they received are, according to their estimates, only 6 percent of the total number of servicemen of the Russian Armed Forces in the status of missing persons.
