Losses from the war

In December 2023, experts from the Kyiv School of Economics project “Russia will pay” reported that the amount of damage to Ukraine’s infrastructure due to the war as of January 2024 exceeded $150 billion. This assessment also takes into account the losses caused to Ukraine due to the explosion of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station by the invaders in June.
