Overview
- In simultaneous releases, Ukraine’s General Staff reported about 1,425,990 cumulative Russian troop losses since Feb. 24, 2022, while Russia’s Defense Ministry said roughly 1,450 Ukrainian troops were killed in the past 24 hours and that its forces struck 147 locations.
- Moscow’s daily claims detailed strikes on long‑range UAV storage, fuel and transport infrastructure and temporary deployment areas, which it said aim to reduce Ukraine’s long‑range strike and drone capacity.
- Russia’s Defense Ministry reported extensive air‑defense actions, saying its forces intercepted 802 fixed‑wing Ukrainian UAVs, eight guided aerial bombs and five HIMARS rockets over the past 24 hours.
- Ukraine’s General Staff published its own cumulative tallies of Russian equipment losses, listing thousands of tanks, armored vehicles and hundreds of thousands of drones, and it continues to withhold Ukrainian casualty totals for operational reasons.
- Independent analysts such as CSIS estimate Russian casualties exceed Ukrainian losses by about two‑to‑one, and that gap, together with opaque methods from both sides, means third‑party verification and Western assessments will be key to judging battlefield trends and shaping further international support.
