Ukraine’s military commander-in-chief, Oleksandr Syrsky, has stated that Russian occupation forces operating on Ukrainian territory are losing an average of 1,251 servicemen daily. This figure represents both killed and wounded personnel, highlighting the intense and prolonged nature of the conflict.
The commander’s statement comes amid continued fighting across various fronts in the war-torn region. While the exact locations of these casualties are not specified, the high daily toll suggests ongoing combat operations and the significant strain being placed on Russian military resources.
This report adds to the growing body of evidence indicating the unsustainable level of casualties that Russian forces are experiencing. Analysts suggest that such a high attrition rate could have long-term implications for Russia’s military capabilities and its ability to maintain its war effort in Ukraine.
