Gotta wonder where are they now. Still in Crimea? Dead somewhere else in Ukraine? Escaped Russia?
These guys are most certainly dead by now if were still fighting during the full-scale invasion. Units like the 155th Guards Naval Infantry Brigade have been completely wiped twice. The average mobik survives only one month on the frontline as of late 2024. It was 4 1/2 months in 2023.
Casualties is not the same as dead. A lot of those guys will be injured too badly to fight but not dead.
