Russian Losses According to Open Sources and Estimates from International Organizations
The Naval Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported the destruction of a Russian Ka-27 helicopter the day before. At the same time, Russia officially does not disclose data on its losses: the last time Moscow reported the number of dead was back in September 2022, claiming 5,937 individuals.
Journalists from the Russian publication “Mediazona,” the Russian service of the BBC, and a team of volunteers established the names of over 173,000 Russian soldiers who have died in the war since February 2022 based on open sources as of February 6 of this year.
This data is not complete, as not all information becomes publicly available. International organizations and intelligence agencies estimate the total losses of the Russian Federation (killed and wounded) to be significantly higher. In December 2025, a NATO official reported that, according to alliance estimates, the number of killed and wounded in the Russian army could be approaching 1.15 million individuals, with average daily losses in November amounting to approximately 1,100 individuals.
Kyiv had long refrained from disclosing its own losses. However, in early February 2026, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reported that since the beginning of the full-scale war, Ukraine has lost 55,000 servicemen. According to him, a significant number of individuals remain missing.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Oleksandr Syrskyi, noted that in 2025, it was possible to reduce the losses of the Ukrainian army by 13% compared to previous years, although he did not disclose details.
