General Staff: Russia has lost 1,570,540 troops in Ukraine since Feb. 24, 2022
Since the start of the invasion on February 24, 2022, Russia has reportedly lost over 1.57 million troops in Ukraine, according to Ukraine's General Staff. This figure includes 1,820 casualties from the last day alone. Additionally, Russia has lost significant military equipment, including over 12,000 tanks and 25,000 armored vehicles. Independent analyses suggest that Russian casualties are much higher than Ukraine's, with estimates indicating a ratio of approximately 2.5:1. Ukrainian officials have not disclosed their total losses, but President Zelensky mentioned at least 55,000 Ukrainian soldiers killed in action. The ongoing conflict complicates the retrieval of fallen soldiers' bodies for identification purposes.
