Zelensky on Ukraine's losses
— Regarding our losses, the exact figures are very important to us. 45,100 people were killed and about 390 were injured. Let me clarify: the number of wounded is greater than the wounded.
There are people who were wounded and then returned to the battlefield and were wounded again. The number of wounded is 390 thousand. But the number of wounded people is less, — Zelensky claims.

Russia's losses in the war against Ukraine
According to Zelensky, Russia lost about 350 thousand soldiers killed. Another 50-70 thousand Russian soldiers are considered missing, and 600-700 thousand were wounded.
— They have about 600-700 thousand wounded. Approximately one to two ratio. Field medicine is weaker than ours. They do not bring the wounded back. If a person is wounded on the battlefield, then he stays there, — Zelensky said.
The President of Ukraine noted that such estimates are approximate, but they very clearly correspond to reality.
At the same time, Zelensky noted that there are problems with the exact number of missing and captured. He noted that he cannot give an exact figure, but Ukraine is working on this issue.
