"Russia is losing a lot of people, up to 35,000 a month. Because of the losses inflicted by Ukraine, Russia's army stopped growing. Losses equal the number of newly mobilised soldiers. They are close to a crisis."
"The gains amounted to 460sq km (117.6sq miles), or about 10 percent of what Kyiv lost to Moscow in 2025, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Moscow's inability to replenish its front-line losses is the main factor."
"Ukrainian counterattacks were especially successful in the eastern region of Dnipropetrovsk, where the presence of Russian troops had been insignificant and is now reduced to only three towns. Almost the entire territory of Dnipropetrovsk has been liberated."
Ukraine has begun reclaiming territory for the first time in nearly three years, gaining approximately 460 square kilometers across Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhia regions. President Zelenskyy attributes this success to Russia's unsustainable casualty rate of up to 35,000 soldiers monthly, which prevents force replenishment and halts army growth. Ukrainian counterattacks have been particularly effective in Dnipropetrovsk, where Russian presence has been reduced to three towns, with almost the entire region liberated. In Zaporizhia, Ukrainian forces recaptured nine towns since January from areas previously occupied by Moscow. Despite these gains, Russia continues aerial attacks and maintains pressure along the front line while planning spring-summer offensives in Donetsk.
