The report also details extensive losses of military hardware. Specifically, Russia has lost:

Losses also include 75,759 vehicles and fuel tankers (+115) and 4,050 units of special equipment. These figures are compiled by Ukrainian military intelligence and represent one side's assessment of the conflict.

The sustained scale of these losses in personnel and matériel continues to degrade the Russian army's operational capabilities in Ukraine. Such attrition, now entering its fifth year, is likely to have strategic consequences for the future course of the conflict by eroding Russia's combat effectiveness. The regular updating of this grim statistics underscores both the intensity and the protracted nature of the fighting.
