The General Staff of Ukraine's Armed Forces reported on Feb. 27 that Russia had lost 148,690 troops in Ukraine since the beginning of its full-scale invasion on Feb. 24 last year.

This number includes 560 casualties Russian forces suffered in Ukraine just over the past day.

According to the report, Russia has also lost 3,385 tanks, 6,621 armored fighting vehicles, 5,248 vehicles and fuel tanks, 2,380 artillery systems, 475 multiple launch rocket systems, 247 air defense systems, 300 airplanes, 288 helicopters, 2,048 drones, and 18 boats.

Independent journalism needs a community —
not a paywall.

We’re working hard to show the world the truth of Russia’s brutal war — and we’re keeping it free for everyone, because reliable information should be available to all.

Our goal: reach 20,000 members to prove independent journalism can survive without paywalls, billionaires, or compromise. Will you help us do it?
