Currently, the ratio of losses on the front lines is approximately one to three in favor of Ukraine, states Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a conversation with journalists.
"Let me give an example from yesterday, roughly like this: the Russians suffer about a thousand losses per day — that’s 500 killed and 500 wounded. I’m not even counting the 10 prisoners and so on. More precisely, 968 losses for Russia: 531 killed, 428 wounded, and 9 captured. We had 340 losses in one day: 18 killed, 243 wounded, and 79 missing in action," he said.
According to Zelenskyy, the personnel ratio is 1 to 3 in favor of Ukraine, artillery is 1 to 2.4 in favor of the enemy, and FPV drones are 1 to 1.4 in favor of Ukraine.
"We don’t have enough money for drones, so it’s currently 1 to 1.4, although we believe we could easily maintain a 1 to 2.5 ratio in our favor, even up to 1 to 4. But we’re looking for funding from European partners," he noted.
Russian losses on the front lines
Over the past day, the Russian army lost about 980 soldiers. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, 1,065,220 Russian soldiers have been eliminated.
Ukraine’s Defense Forces also destroyed five enemy tanks, the same number of armored combat vehicles, 26 artillery systems, two multiple launch rocket systems, one air defense system, 107 operational-tactical UAVs, 106 vehicles, and one unit of special equipment belonging to the enemy.
