Russia’s losses rise as Ukraine regains ground and logistics war intensifies

TL;DR Summary
U.S. DIA and ISW assessments suggest Russia is losing ground and slowing its advance in 2026, with Ukraine claiming about 400 sq km retaken near Dnipro. Kyiv cites high Russian casualties this year and credits its drone/artillery strategy and a ‘Logistical Lockdown’ to disrupt Russian logistics. Russia’s finances appear strained as it sells gold reserves, while Western support grows, including Sweden’s pledge of 16 Gripen jets to Kyiv.
