Take this with a grain of salt, since the report comes from an organization that seems to be anti-PooTin, and it's unclear how the representative arrived at that estimate.

Most of Wagner Prisoner Fighters Are Dead or Deserted After Soledar: Report (msn.com)

Olga Romanova, head of the Rus Seated charity foundation, said in a YouTube video published by the My Russian Rights project that the private military company (PMC) headed by Russian financier and longtime Vladimir Putin ally Yevgeny Prigozhin had recruited in the range of 42,000 to 43,000 prisoners by the end of last year.

That tally has most likely surpassed 50,000 fighters in the present state of the war, she said, according to a translation from news outlet Meduza. But of those approximate 50,000 soldiers, only "10,000 are fighting at the front, because all the rest are either killed...or missing, or deserted, or surrendered."
