Since the war began, at least 69 victims of political repression have died in Russia

The figure comes from a report by the human rights project Support for Political Prisoners. Memorial, published for the Day of Remembrance of Victims of Political Repression.

The most common causes of death were illness and a lack of medical care: human rights advocates counted 29 such cases. At least 20 people died from beatings, torture, or their consequences, while ten died by suicide.
