The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has reported that Russia has suffered approximately 1,513,490 casualties in Ukraine since the beginning of its full-scale invasion on February 24, 2022. This figure includes 1,960 Russian casualties from the past day alone. In addition to human losses, Russia has reportedly lost a significant number of military assets, including 12,346 tanks, 25,345 armored combat vehicles, 150,018 vehicles and fuel tanks, 49,863 artillery systems, 2,139 multiple launch rocket systems, 1,645 anti-aircraft systems, 442 aircraft, 356 helicopters, 2,644 unmanned ground systems, 520,508 aerial drones, 35 ships and boats, and two submarines.

While Ukraine has not disclosed its own losses, Western think-tank reports estimate that Ukraine has likely suffered between 500,000 and 600,000 casualties since February 2022, with the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) suggesting a ratio of around 2.5:1 or 2:1 between Russian and Ukrainian casualties.
