Russia lost an estimated 2,280 troops over the past 24 hours, bringing its total personnel losses since the start of the full-scale invasion to approximately 1,604,110, Ukraine’s General Staff reported on November 7.

The latest tally puts Russia’s estimated personnel losses more than 4,000 above the 1.6 million mark, according to Ukrainian figures. Russian forces also lost three armored combat vehicles during the latest reporting period, bringing cumulative estimated losses to 25,654. Tank losses remained unchanged at 12,456.

Another 44 artillery systems and three multiple-launch rocket systems were added to the tally, raising estimated losses to 52,000 and 2,257, respectively.

Ukraine also reported the loss of three Russian air defense systems in a single day, bringing the cumulative figure to 1,747. Estimated Russian aircraft and helicopter losses remained unchanged at 452 and 356, respectively.

Another eight ground robotic systems were recorded as lost, raising the total to 3,093, while 1,224 operational-tactical UAVs brought cumulative estimated drone losses to 598,840. Cruise missile losses remained at 5,192, while Russia’s naval losses stood at 35 ships and boats and two submarines.

Another 460 vehicles and fuel tankers were added to the latest tally, pushing cumulative losses in that category to 171,389. Three additional pieces of special equipment brought the total to 4,881.

Fighting remained intense across the front, with 190 combat engagements recorded during the past 24 hours.

Russian forces carried out one missile strike and 75 airstrikes, dropping 261 guided aerial bombs. The General Staff also reported that Russian forces deployed 6,903 one-way attack drones and conducted 2,184 strikes against Ukrainian positions and populated areas, including 53 using multiple-launch rocket systems.

Earlier, Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense reported on November 6 that Ukrainian forces conducted a record 31,398 missions using unmanned ground vehicles in October, marking the first time the monthly total surpassed 30,000. The robots are increasingly used for frontline logistics and evacuating wounded personnel, reducing risks to Ukrainian troops.
