Russian military losses in Ukraine surpass 1.5 million, Kyiv reports

Ukraine's General Staff reports Russian military losses have exceeded 1.5 million, a milestone reached in roughly two years and three months since the first 500,000. The figure is unverified and likely includes killed, wounded, and missing, reflecting the war's attritional nature. This underscores the prolonged human cost of the conflict, though the exact composition of losses remains uncertain.
