Ukraine’s General Staff says Russia has lost 1,618,920 troops since its full-scale invasion began in February 2022, including 2,590 over the past day. The reported total underscores the scale of Russian losses, though Ukraine does not publish its own overall casualty figures.

The General Staff also lists losses of 12,472 tanks, 25,731 armoured combat vehicles, 52,322 artillery systems and 452 aircraft, among other equipment. It described October 2026 as Russia’s deadliest month for combat losses; a January 2026 CSIS estimate put Russian casualties at roughly two to two-and-a-half times Ukraine’s, while estimating 500,000 to 600,000 Ukrainian casualties through December 2025.
