According to TSN.ua: As of March 11, 2026, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have eliminated 1,275,980 personnel from the Russian Federation, with an additional 990 military personnel liquidated in the past day. This figure underscores the severe attrition Russian forces have sustained since the invasion began in February 2022.

Additional Russian Equipment Losses

Beyond personnel, Russia has suffered extensive losses in military hardware since the start of the conflict. Destroyed equipment includes:

• 11,763 tanks
• 24,177 armored combat vehicles
• 38,263 artillery systems
• 1,680 multiple launch rocket systems
• 1,328 air defense systems

Other significant losses of technical equipment are:

• 349 helicopters
• 170,966 operational-tactical level unmanned aerial vehicles
• 4,403 cruise missiles
• 31 ships/boats
• 2 submarines
• 82,791 units of automotive equipment and fuel tankers
• 4,088 units of special equipment

These statistics highlight the immense scale of the losses incurred by the Russian Federation in its military campaign. The figures are widely cited by Ukrainian authorities and Western analysts, though Russia rarely confirms such losses publicly.

The reported numbers reflect not only the military toll but also the broader context of a protracted conflict now entering its fifth year. The high attrition rate of both personnel and equipment is likely to impact Russia's long-term war strategy and the regional balance of power. These developments are closely monitored by the international community, given their implications for global security and the future course of the war.
