It is difficult to definitively identify a single soldier who killed the most people, as military records often do not provide accurate counts of individual actions. However, during World War II, Soviet sniper Vasily Zaitsev is credited with over 200 confirmed kills, making him one of the most renowned snipers in history. In contrast, some estimates suggest that other soldiers, particularly those in roles like artillery or air support, may have caused higher casualties indirectly.
