!Disclaimer: Don't quote me, I'm months behind on news/statistics.!<

Crimea, Donbas and the current conflict tally up around 1.2M casualties, on the low end. Estimates are really hard during any war, but most experts would agree they are always lower than the real amount. As for civilian deaths, it's in the 30-40k range. Even more are missing.
