Note that they count all military deaths, but just those accrued in Ukraine.
Typical mortality rate for 1 million Russian males in that age is 2500/year.
With a total of 2 million in the armed forces over 3.5 years we should have 17500 military deaths from natural causes.
Roughly 10% of the probate estimate or about 15% of the total number of registered deaths.
Further, some 20% are inmates... so Russias losses are very manageable.
Another question is how many new citizens they have now from Ukraine, but that is irrelevant for counting casualties. It's more relevant for the demographic impact.
