Russian Casualties Hit 160,000 in 2025 So Far

UK intelligence estimates show Russia has suffered over 160,000 casualties in the first four months of 2025, reaching over 1,200 losses per day in April. These rates may indicate the deadliest year of the war to date. The cumulative toll since February 2022 is now 900,000 killed or wounded, with fatalities ranging between 200,000 and 250,000. Analysts warn this level of loss is not sustainable and questions remain on how long Russia can continue high-intensity assaults for marginal gains, especially around Avdiivka and the Donbas front.Sources
