I know it is normal for countries to deflate their casualty numbers during war, but how do they do it? If for example 1000 soldiers are killed in a month, how could a government claim only 400 were killed without the public discover this to be a lie? Surley the families of the killed soldiers are promptly informed.

Just look at what Russia is doing in Ukraine. What informing the families? They send the cannon fodder in, and nobody has a clue which ditch each of them died in, they lose about thousand every damn day. They are all simply missing, maybe some of them managed to get captured and survived, Russia doesn’t know before Ukraine offers to trade prisoners.
The dead that make it back died somewhere in the rear, they don’t bring corpses back from the very front.
