Russia has likely sustained approximately 332,000 casualties (killed and wounded) in the Ukraine war so far in 2025, and approximately 1,118,000 casualties since launching its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The UK Ministry of Defense reported this on the social network X,\u00a0in a post<\/a>\u00a0seen by Ukrinform.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The average daily Russian casualties during September 2025 amounted to 950, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, a moderate increase from Russia\u2019s August 2025 average daily casualty rate. The average daily rate in September 2025 was the second lowest reported since April 2024, after August 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The recorded Russian casualty rate decreased month on month from March 2025 to August 2025. However, Russia\u2019s casualty rate in October 2025 has been steadily growing, surpassing 1,000 daily casualties every day from October 5 through October 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Russia\u2019s decreased monthly casualty rate has been sustained at the same time as Russian forces have maintained a high operational tempo across the frontline, and Russia has continued to make incremental territorial gains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
