According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Russia has suffered approximately 1,476,580 casualties in Ukraine since the start of its full-scale invasion on February 24, 2022. This figure encompasses both Russian military personnel and civilian casualties, including 12,292 tanks, 25,202 armored combat vehicles, and a variety of other military assets lost by Russia.

While Ukraine has not disclosed its own losses due to operational secrecy, Western estimates suggest that Russia's casualties are significantly higher, with the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) estimating a ratio of roughly 2.5:1 or 2:1.
