General Staff: Russia has lost 1,620,630 troops in Ukraine since Feb. 24, 2022
Ukraine’s General Staff says Russian forces have suffered 1,620,630 troop losses since Russia began its full-scale invasion on 24 February 2022. The latest reported daily toll is 1,710; the figure highlights the scale of the war, though Ukraine has not published a comparable total for its own losses.
The Ukrainian report also lists losses of 12,478 tanks, 25,750 armoured combat vehicles, 52,355 artillery systems, 452 aircraft and other equipment. Ukraine’s losses remain undisclosed, but a January 2026 CSIS estimate put Ukrainian casualties at 500,000 to 600,000 through December 2025, including 100,000 to 140,000 killed; President Volodymyr Zelensky has separately said at least 55,000 Ukrainian soldiers were killed in action. CSIS estimates Russian casualties are roughly two to two-and-a-half times Ukraine’s, while fighting and drone attacks complicate recovery and identification of fallen Ukrainian soldiers.
