The General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces has indicated in its daily update that Russia has already lost 303,270 soldiers since the beginning of the war of aggression.
These figures also include the 850 losses suffered by the Russian armed forces in the past 24 hours. In addition, according to the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, the army has managed to destroy 24 tanks, bringing the total number of tanks destroyed to 5,265. This was announced by the Ukrainians on the platform X, formerly Twitter. They also destroyed two cruise missiles and seven drones in the past 24 hours.
According to the report, Russia has also lost 9,901 armored combat vehicles, 9,691 vehicles and fuel tanks, 7,328 artillery systems, 854 multiple rocket launchers, 566 air defense systems, 322 airplanes, 324 helicopters, and 20 boats.
These claims have not yet been independently verified or confirmed. For this reason, they should be regarded with caution. In war, it can be advantageous for conflicting parties to deliberately spread misinformation in order to strengthen their own position or weaken that of the opponent.
