The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense reports a daily loss of 560 Russian soldiers.
This brings the total number of soldiers “neutralized” since the beginning of the offensive war to 297,680. This means that they have either fallen or been so severely injured that they are no longer able to participate in combat. In the last 24 hours, troops from Kyiv are also reported to have destroyed four tanks, eleven armored combat vehicles, and seven artillery systems.
According to the report, since the beginning of the offensive war against Ukraine, Russia has lost 5,145 tanks, 9,726 armored combat vehicles, 9,513 vehicles and fuel tanks, 7,162 artillery systems, 834 multiple rocket launcher systems, 556 air defense systems, 320 aircraft, 324 helicopters, 5,390 drones, and 20 boats.
These figures have not yet been independently verified and/or confirmed. For this reason, they should be viewed with caution. In war, it can be advantageous for parties to the conflict to deliberately spread false information to strengthen their own position or weaken that of the opponent.
