Ukraine's military: Russia lost 1,540 troops over past day
Ukraine's General Staff reports that Russian forces lost 1,540 soldiers over the past 24 hours in the war against Ukraine. The figure is part of Kyiv's regularly published tally of Russian military losses.
Ukraine's Armed Forces General Staff has reported that over the past day, Russian forces suffered further losses in the war against Ukraine — 1,540 troops described as killed or taken out of combat.
This figure forms part of the Ukrainian side's regularly updated overall statistics on Russian armed forces losses since the start of the full-scale invasion. Ukraine's military leadership publishes such data daily, based on battlefield assessments.
Independent verification of the exact Russian military loss figures is currently not possible, as Moscow does not regularly release its own military casualty statistics and often declines to comment on them. Nevertheless, the Ukrainian General Staff's data is widely used as a reference point for assessing the course of the war and the depletion of resources on both sides.
The report on the new loss figure was published citing information from Ukrainska Pravda, based on Ukrainian military sources.
