Russia has been accused of using disproportionately more minority ethnic groups during the Russo-Ukrainian War^[1], with Buryatia, Kalmykia (both Mongolic regions) and Dagestan having the highest number of casualties per capita.^[2]

During the 2022 Russian mobilization, minority areas such as Kalmykia had multiple times more men conscripted than majority Slavic areas, with some Kalmyk villages being depopulated by 20%^[3].
