Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy disclosed that Ukraine sustained 340 casualties on 11 August, with 18 military personnel killed, 243 injured, and 79 missing in action, according to Ukrinform.

Speaking to journalists, Zelenskyy said that Russian losses were three times higher. "Russians lost 968 soldiers in one day: 531 killed, 428 injured, and 9 captured," the president said.

President revealed the overall personnel ratio between Ukraine and Russia stands at 1 to 3 in favor of the occupying forces. In artillery, the ratio is 1 to 2.4 in Russia's favor, Zelenskyy said. However, Ukraine maintains a 1.4-fold advantage in FPV drones.

On the morning of 12 August, Ukraine's General Staff reported that Russia has lost 1,065,220 personnel since the war began. Ukrainian forces have also destroyed 11,098 Russian tanks, 31,406 artillery systems, 421 aircraft, and 340 helicopters, according to the General Staff.

The General Staff does not release current data on Ukrainian losses.

In February 2025, Zelenskyy said that 45,000 Ukrainian servicemen had died in the war against Russia. Previously, in December 2024, the president said Ukraine's losses had reached 43,000 military personnel.
