According to him, Ukraine is now losing 30 people dead and about 250 wounded every day, despite the fact that at the peak of hostilities in May and June, the losses were from 100 to 200 soldiers per day.
Zelensky noted that this is due to the supply of more powerful Western weapons to Ukraine, since if earlier the invaders fired 12,000 artillery shells daily against 1-2 thousand Ukrainian shells, now Ukraine can fire about 6,000 shells a day.

At the same time, the president refused to tell journalists the exact number of losses suffered by the Ukrainian army since the beginning of the Russian invasion. But he once again emphasized that this number is “many times less” than the losses in personnel that Russia bears.
Recall, as reported in the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as of July 22 in our territory eliminated 39 thousand invaders.
“I have data, but I can’t make it public so as not to give the enemy details. I can say that they differ significantly from the enemy’s huge losses. The peak of our losses was in May. When Mikhail Podolyak and the president spoke in June, there were it was them. Then the superiority of the enemy was greatest, especially in the Donbas direction – they used up to a thousand artillery shells per hour. It was insane pressure, and we did not have the opportunity to respond to them: we did not have so many rounds. In May, indeed, up to a hundred guys and girls, unfortunately, died, and up to 300-400 were injured,” he said.
