Russian Blood and Treasure: The Ballooning Costs of Putin’s War

Russia has suffered approximately 1.4 million casualties and 450,000 fatalities in Ukraine for only marginal territorial gains, according to new CSIS data. In addition, Ukraine has conducted deep strikes into Russian territory, including with AI-enabled drones.

In addition, Russia’s monthly casualty rates of over 30,000 per month in 2026 have likely exceeded Russia’s recruitment rates of roughly 27,000 new recruits per month. The Russia-Ukraine casualty rate has likely risen to nearly 8:1 in the first half of 2026, up from between 2:1 and 3:1 for much of the war, in large part due to Ukraine’s use of drones—including AI-enabled drones—as part of its aggressive air interdiction campaign.

Footage of five Ukrainian naval drones being destroyed by Russian Lancet drones, small arms, and anti-tank missiles. The video was filmed in the Black Sea, presumably near the coast of Crimea, as evidenced by the ATGM firing. The type of Ukrainian naval drones is unknown.

 
The Russian army has begun using tear gas-armed drones to assault Ukrainian positions. The video shows drone strikes in Ukraine using tear gas warheads. The use of such drones helps reduce casualties during assaults on fortified positions, bunkers, and other underground structures. Some Ukrainian units have begun using gas masks, as shown at the end of the video.
