Russian forces at the Chechen-Ingush border crossing
（俄罗斯军队穿过车臣－印古什边境）

　　Russia has admitted that more than 1,100 of its soldiers have been killed in the six-month conflict in Chechnya, as heavy fighting continues in the battle for the capital, Grozny.
　　 Senior officials quoted by the Russian Interfax agency said 1,173 soldiers have been killed since fighting began in September - much higher than previous official counts. The Russian military's daily casualty figures had seldom reached double-digits in the past months.
　　 But independent sources, said at least 3,000 servicemen had lost their lives.
　　 And on Tuesday, Russians paid their last respects to the highest-ranking officer to die in the campaign. Major-General Mikhail Malofeyev, killed in battle last week in Grozny, was buried with full military honours in the North Caucasus town of Vladikavkaz.


 


俄罗斯承认遭到重大伤亡
　　俄罗斯承认在六个月的车臣冲突中，已经有1100多名士兵战死。而现在格罗兹尼周围还有激烈战斗。
　　据俄罗斯国际电讯社援引高级官员的话说，自从去年九月以来，已有1173名士兵阵亡。而在过去的几个月中俄官方阵亡数字每天很少达到两位数。
　　但是据非官方消息报道，至少3000多军人阵亡。
　　周二，俄军埋葬了在战斗中身亡的最高军官Mikhail Malofeyev少将。在北高加索城镇Vladikavkaz俄军以最高军礼埋葬了上周在格罗兹尼战斗中阵亡的这位少将。
