Russian forces lost 890 troops over the past 24 hours, along with 33 artillery systems, Ukraine’s General Staff reported in its morning update on March 24.

According to the report, Russia’s total estimated combat losses since February 24, 2022, have reached approximately 1,289,740 personnel.

Additional losses recorded over the past day include six tanks, three armored fighting vehicles, one multiple launch rocket system, and more than 1,000 operational-tactical drones. Ukrainian forces also destroyed 180 vehicles and fuel tankers.

Cumulative Russian losses since the start of the full-scale war now stand at 11,800 tanks, 24,271 armored vehicles, and 38,695 artillery systems, according to the General Staff.

Air defense systems, aircraft, helicopters, and naval assets saw no additional losses during the reporting period.

Ukrainian forces repelled 168 Russian attacks across the front line over the past day, the General Staff said.

The heaviest fighting was reported in the Pokrovsk sector, where 34 engagements took place, followed by the Huliaipole direction with 18 clashes.

Earlier, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Russian forces attempted to intensify offensive operations over the past week, but those efforts resulted primarily in heavier losses.

“The only tangible result for the Russian army has been an increase in their losses—just over the past seven days, more than 8,000 Russian soldiers have been killed or seriously wounded,” Zelenskyy said.
