The Kyiv Independent could not independently verify the claim. Speaking to the Kazakh outlet Vlast, Zelensky said the figure shows Russian dictator Vladimir Putin "has absolutely no regard for human life."

According to Ukraine's General Staff, over half a million Russian soldiers were either killed or wounded in Ukraine during the 27-month-long full-scale war. The staggering number is in line with the estimates of the U.K. and France, which said earlier in May that the overall Russian losses are set to be around 500,000. "We estimate Russian military losses at 500,000, including 150,000 deaths," French Foreign Minister Stephane Sejourne said on May 3. Russia's aggression with little regard for the lives of its own soldiers is likely to continue, but behind the figure lies a potential demographic...

Russia's new Defense Minister Andrei Belousov said on May 14 that his main priority is to win the war in Ukraine "with minimal human losses," even as Moscow reportedly suffers record numbers of troops killed and wounded on the battlefield. Belousov, a former aide and Russia's economy minister from 2012-2013, replaced Sergei Shoigu as the defense minister in a surprise reshuffle of Russia's security and defense apparatus. Speaking on May 14 after being officially appointed, he laid out his priorities for his new role. "The key task, of course, remains achieving victory. Ensuring the achievement...

The Russian military has largely replaced its heavy battlefield losses in Ukraine, and at a much faster pace than anticipated, said General Christopher Cavoli, the top U.S. commander in Europe, in a written statement to Congress on April 11. Total estimates of Russia's casualties and equipment losses since the full-scale invasion vary widely. The BBC's Russian service, along with the Russian independent media outlet Mediazona, confirmed the identities of more than 50,000 Russian soldiers killed in Ukraine earlier in April. The true death toll is thought to be much higher. According to the Gene...

Russian forces continue to ramp up their offensive operations along the front line despite the material and personnel losses, the Institute for the Study of War's (ISW) report said on April 7. Russia continues to intensify its assaults near the Russian-occupied cities of Bakhmut and Avdiivkain Donetsk Oblast in attempts to advance in this front-line sector. Chasiv Yar, which lies 10 kilometers west of Bakhmut, remains one of Russia's main targets. Commander-in-Chief of Ukraine's Armed Forces Oleksandr Syrskyi said on April 6 that "fierce battles" are taking place east of the city, but it is st...

Russia's average number of killed and wounded in action has fallen to 913 per day, the U.K.’s Defense Ministry reported in its intelligence update on April 7. The decrease in losses corresponds with fewer reported attacks over the past month, according to the report. “The reduction in Russian offensive operations highly likely reflects a series of factors: a period of rest and refit following the capture of Avdiivka, and intent to reduce death notifications during the Russian election,” the ministry said on X. The Avdiivka offensive was costly for the Russian army. The capture of Avdiivka, a U...

The BBC's Russian service, along with the Russian independent media outlet Mediazona, confirmed on April 5 the identities of more than 50,000 Russian soldiers killed in Ukraine since the beginning of the full-scale war. The research, using open-source analysis, only cites those confirmed as being killed, thus almost certainly undercounting the real total. The BBC estimated the true figure likely surpasses 100,000. The figure also does not include soldiers from Russian-occupied territories of Ukraine. According to the BBC's research, around 23,400 soldiers from Russian-occupied Donetsk and Luha...
