        They wanted to make sure he was dead. A Makarov mag only holds 8 rounds.

            New study shows that probably 50K russians soldiers have died in the Ukraine war.

              I had read that, but it doesn't begin to touch the not immediately fatal casualties. How many actually died is not nearly as consequential as those who can no longer fight.

                Expanding Mik's comment: Conventional wisdom is that for every one fatality, at least two more are injured beyond the point where they can return to combat. So total casualties are in excess of 150K.

                The question is what about Ukrainian casualties?
