The British intelligence service reported the information.

Experts analyzed the General Staff's report, according to which Russia's average daily losses during July 2025 amounted to approximately 1,072 people.

“The average daily Russian casualties during July 2025 was approximately 1,072 according to Ukrainian General Staff reporting. Russian casualty rates have moderately decreased month on month since March 2025, with July’s average daily rate the lowest reported since April 2024.

The moderate decreases in Russia’s monthly casualty rates have occurred at the same time as Russian attacks across the frontline have continued at a high operational tempo and Russia has continued to make steady incremental gains in the Donbas,” the statement reads.

Over the past day, the Russian army lost around 1,120 personnel, along with dozens of units of military equipment and weaponry, in its war against Ukraine.

  • On August 1, U.S. President Donald Trump stated that Russia had lost 112,500 soldiers in the war in Ukraine since the beginning of the year.
