Russia’s military losses top 1 million in 3-year-old war, Ukraine’s military says
- On Thursday, Ukraine's General Staff reported that Russian military casualties have surpassed 1 million since the full-scale invasion began on February 24, 2022.
- This assertion is supported by Western intelligence agencies, including the U.K. Defense Ministry and a Washington-based think tank, which project that casualties could reach one million this summer amid ongoing conflict.
- The high casualty count reflects Russia’s 'meat grinder' tactics, heavy drone attacks on Ukrainian cities, and partial mobilization of 300,000 reservists since September 2022.
- Roughly 250,000 Russian soldiers have been killed, thousands wounded, and hundreds of thousands recruited, with the CSIS calling one million casualties a 'stunning and grisly milestone.'
- The figures indicate Russia faces mounting manpower shortages and demographic challenges, suggesting its war effort will continue to strain both military and civilian resources.
