Zelenskyy: Defense Intelligence received classified data on russian losses in Ukraine

The Defense Intelligence of Ukraine has obtained documents of classified reports on the losses of the russian occupiers in the war against Ukraine, which are estimated at 1,315,000 killed and seriously wounded. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced this on Tuesday, March 10.

Zelenskyy noted that the head of the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, Oleh Ivashchenko, reported on important documents about the losses of russians at the front that the intelligence service managed to obtain.

"In particular, a change in the ratio of killed and wounded Russians was recorded, namely, out of 100% of losses, 62% were killed and 38% were wounded. The Russians themselves give in closed official reports the level of their irrecoverable losses at 1 million 315 thousand killed and seriously wounded," the head of state said.

According to Zelenskyy, there are reasons to believe that these data on the occupiers' losses in the war against Ukraine are underestimated. The De fense Intelligencealso received updated data on cooperation between russia and North Korea.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, the total losses of the army of the aggressor country russia during the three winter months amounted to more than 90,000 npeople killed and wounded.

On March 1, the commander of the Unmanned Systems Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Robert "Madyar" Brovdi, said, that over the winter, the occupiers lost the full assault force of 36 brigades of the russian army.

As a reminder, on February 24, Bloomberg wrote that the increase in the level of losses may affect moscow's plans for offensive operations in the spring and summer of 2026.
