Cargo 200

The term used by the Russians for dead bodies of soldiers in a military conflict. It’s also the name of a 2007 Russian film

“Unofficially, Cargo 200 is used to refer to all bodies of the dead being transported away from the battlefield, and has also become a euphemism for irreversible losses of manpower in a conflict.” (Wikipedia).

Ukraine has set up a website and telegram channel called 200rf.com - in reference to Cargo 200 - so Russian families can track down and identify their sons.
