Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that approximately 43,000 Ukrainian soldiers have died since the start of Russia’s invasion, with an additional 370,000 injured. He also stated that 198,000 Russian soldiers were killed, although these figures remain unverified. Recent reports suggest significantly higher casualty numbers for Russia, amid ongoing battles that have seen substantial territorial shifts. This update marks the first significant disclosure from Zelensky since February, reflecting the dire human cost of the conflict.
