 Russia has lost more than 150,000 troops in Ukraine. Russia has already lost about 150,605 troops in Ukraine. The relevant statement was made by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Facebook. Between February 24, 2022 and March 2, 2023, the Russia's total combat losses include also 3,397 tanks, 6,658 armoured fighting vehicles, 2,398 artillery systems, 480 multi-launch rocket systems, 247 anti-aircraft warfare systems, 300 aircraft, 288 helicopters, 5,264 motor vehicles and fuel tanks, 18 warships or boats, 2,058 unmanned aerial vehicles, 230 special equipment units, and 230 special equipment units. A total of 873 Russian cruise missiles were shot down. Russia analysts say that the loss of life is unlikely to be a deterrent to Putin's war aims. He has no political opposition at home and has framed the war as the kind of struggle the country faced in World War II when more than 8 million Soviet troops died. US officials have said that they believe that Putin can sustain hundreds of thousands of casualties in Ukraine, although higher numbers could cut into his political support. Ukraine's casualty figures are also difficult to ascertain, given Kiev's reluctance to disclose its own wartime losses.
