Zelensky Confirms 43,000 Ukrainian Soldiers Lost in War
TL;DR Summary
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy disclosed for the first time that 43,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed and 370,000 wounded since Russia's invasion began in February 2022. This contrasts with reported Russian casualties of 600,000 dead and wounded, though Zelenskyy claims the actual Russian losses are higher. He emphasized the need for a "just peace" with guarantees to prevent future Russian aggression, arguing that a ceasefire without such assurances could lead to renewed conflict.
