Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces Valery Gerasimov
The losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) since the beginning of the special operation amount to about one million killed and wounded, Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces Valery Gerasimov said at a briefing for foreign military attaches.
“The enemy’s losses since the beginning of the special operation amount to about one million dead and wounded,” Gerasimov stressed.
Earlier, the head of the Russian defence ministry, Andrei Belousov, gave similar figures. According to the Defence Ministry, the AFU lost almost a million people during the entire period of the special operation. These are those who were killed, captured or wounded in the period from the beginning of 2022 to the end of 2024, making them unfit for further participation in combat operations. This figure does not include Ukrainian servicemen who have suffered minor injuries that will allow them to return to duty after treatment.
During the same period, the AFU lost some 20,000 tanks and combat vehicles, more than 19,500 artillery pieces and over 1,500 rocket launchers.
According to the Russian Defence Ministry, in the Kursk region alone the AFU lost over 42,000 servicemen, some of whom were captured, over 1,800 tanks and combat vehicles, over 350 artillery pieces, mortars and multiple rocket launchers.
For the whole of 2024, the losses of the Ukrainian army were the highest, accounting for more than 50 per cent of the total number of dead, wounded and captured AFU servicemen for the entire period of the conflict.
At the same time, since the beginning of the Russian special operation, the West has supplied the Ukrainian armed forces with more than 6,400 tanks and armoured vehicles, more than 1,700 surface-to-air missile launchers, 280 multiple rocket launchers and 1,800 field artillery guns.
The Kiev regime has also received more than 150 helicopters and planes and some 40,000 foreign-made drones.
More than 30 countries are supplying military equipment. The main contributors are the US, the UK, Germany, France and Denmark.
Financial aid to Ukraine from Western countries has totalled more than $350 billion, of which $170 billion has gone to the needs of the Ukrainian armed forces.
Despite the huge amount of aid and the actual direct involvement of NATO countries in the armed conflict, in 2024 the Russian army ‘liberated more than 190 settlements and took control of some 4,500 square kilometres of territory’.

bullshit russia. you lie worse than israel.
nah probably more than 1 million gone, thanks to zelensky. hardly any male ukies around except a few drooling old-timers in the homes of the elderly!
prove it, your inability to believe anything that goes against your assumptions is not an argument.
bullshit russia. that’s 1400 people per day.
you forgot to tell us that you haven’t lost a single person or piece of equipment.
who believes this crap?
no you rather believe zelensky’s claim of losing around 41.000? and maybe you didn’t notice it yet, but russia never stated their casualties. so they did not “forget”, they just don’t.
1000 people per day actually
russia and iran are going soft on the western satanists. you cannot fight an existential war with people who want to destroy you by being timid
yep, russ are really softies, they understand the consequences and do not want to be the bad guys. g7 currently hold that reputation as their members have invaded others on false pretenses and have actually used nukes on many innocent women and children civilians to teach them a lesson and they actually sipport their beloved isr to destroy schools, mosques churches and hospitals to achieve and it does not matter how many women children killed along the way.
its not the russ nor the european its the jews who control and run all our governments. this is their game and the goyim are unaliving eschoter as they gloat at our demise. its time to wake up and erase these monsters from the planet.
so zellie boy is telling truth 43000 dead and the rest are maimed or injured many not serìus. judging by the videos, russ booms are quite weak powder puffs and the ukr scattter when the boom hits so only a few people get damaged every time and there are no double tap and the spotter drone just looks on as the ukr can regroup and continue attack mission quite safely.
punctuation seems to be your weakness.
g7 eu support isr invading and controlling lebanon, palestine and now syria and destoying human buildings. has anyone seen that evil witch von der layen ever express an ounce of sympathy for those she orders and supports to kill
its the jews who are doing this they control all world governments.
