More than 4,600 Russian soldiers have been killed or wounded in the past week, Ukraine’s deputy defense minister said on Monday.
Russian forces have „suffered significant losses“ over the past seven days, Ukraine said on Monday, as Kyiv presses on with its counteroffensive.
In the past week, more than 4,600 Russian soldiers have been killed or wounded, Ukraine’s Deputy Defense Minister Hanna Maliar wrote on Telegram on Monday.
Russia has lost 220,450 soldiers to date, including 630 in the previous 24 hours, according to the General Staff of Ukraine’s Armed Forces. On Sunday, Russia’s Defense Ministry said Ukraine had lost up to 950 troops over the past day.
Neither Kyiv nor Moscow provides a running total of their own casualty counts or equipment losses. But both sides are likely sustaining a high number of casualties in Ukraine’s long-anticipated counteroffensive in eastern and southern Ukraine, the British Defense Ministry said on Sunday.
