Original Note:
The number of casualties in Ukraine is much higher than what is claimed here. Just during the 85 days of Battle of Mariupol about 75k people were killed. Since children are about 20% of the population in Ukraine, the number of children's casualties was close to 20k. https://apnews.com/article/russia-ukraine-war-erasing-mariupol-499dceae43ed77f2ebfe750ea99b9ad9#:~:text=the%20death%20toll%20might%20run%20three%20times%20higher%20than%20an%20early%20estimate%20of%20at%20least%2025%2C000.
