Russian forces lost 1,210 troops over the past 24 hours, along with nearly 50 artillery systems, Ukraine’s General Staff reported in its morning update on March 26.

According to the report, total Russian combat losses since the start of the full-scale invasion on February 24, 2022, have reached approximately 1,291,170 personnel.

Over the same period, Ukrainian forces destroyed one tank, four armored fighting vehicles, and 49 artillery systems. Additional losses included two multiple launch rocket systems, one air defense system, and more than 2,000 operational-tactical drones.

Russia’s cumulative losses now stand at 11,807 tanks, 24,278 armored vehicles, and 38,795 artillery systems, according to the General Staff.

A total of 158 combat engagements were recorded along the front line over the past day.

Earlier, Ukrainian assault units from the Skala regiment cleared the village of Minkivka, a key position along the Bakhmut–Sloviansk route, in an operation aimed at stabilizing the frontline and disrupting Russian offensive plans.

The assault allowed Ukrainian forces not only to regain control of the settlement but also to halt further Russian attempts to advance deeper into Ukrainian defensive lines.
