The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has released its latest figures on Russian military losses in the war against Ukraine. According to the report, Russia lost 1,540 soldiers over the past day alone.

This figure is part of Ukraine's military leadership's routine daily updates, which tally the enemy's cumulative losses since the start of the full-scale invasion in 2022. The General Staff publishes such reports regularly, offering estimates of Russian personnel, equipment and weaponry losses across different sections of the front.

These figures from Ukraine's General Staff cannot be independently verified, and Russia does not publicly disclose its own losses or significantly understates them. Nevertheless, such statements remain a regular part of war coverage and are frequently cited by Ukrainian and international media outlets.
