Ukraine’s General Staff has not published its own casualty figures, citing operational secrecy. However, reports by independent Western institutes estimate that Russian losses are significantly higher than Ukrainian losses.
According to a January 2026 report by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), Ukraine may have suffered between 500,000 and 600,000 casualties from February 2022 to December 2025, with between 100,000 and 140,000 believed to have been killed in combat.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told France TV that at least 55,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed since the beginning of the war, while a considerable number remain missing.
The intensity of drone attacks and the fighting has made it extremely difficult for Ukraine to recover the bodies of fallen soldiers, which are needed to confirm their identities through DNA testing.
