Russia has lost around 1,377,510 troops in Ukraine since the beginning of its full-scale invasion on Feb. 24, 2022, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported on June 10.

The number includes 1,190 casualties that Russian forces suffered over the past day.

According to the report, Russia has also lost 12,004 tanks, 24,717 armored combat vehicles, 105,172 vehicles and fuel tanks, 43,713 artillery systems, 1,857 multiple launch rocket systems, 1,414 air defense systems, 436 aircraft, 353 helicopters, 340,531 drones, 1,619 unmanned ground vehicles, 33 ships and boats, and two submarines.

Ukraine's General Staff has not revealed its own losses during the war, citing operational secrecy.

Independent Western think-tank reports agree that the Russian casualties significantly surpass Ukraine's losses, with the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) estimating the ratio to be "roughly 2.5:1 or 2:1."

A January 2026 CSIS report said Ukraine has likely suffered between 500,000 and 600,000 casualties from February 2022 to December 2025, of which between 100,000 and 140,000 are thought to be killed in action (KIA).

The Verkhovna Rada failed to gather enough votes for some bills demanded by the EU and the IMF, and one bill necessary for European integration was passed but was lambasted by experts as "imitation" rather than genuine progress.
