Ukraine claims $25.5B in Russian war costs

Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi has stated that Ukrainian strikes have cost Russia's war machine $25.5 billion. The figure accounts for both direct destruction of military assets and broader damage to the industrial and logistical infrastructure supporting the invasion. Syrskyi also asserted that for four consecutive months, Ukrainian drone operations have been killing Russian troops at a rate exceeding Russia's ability to mobilize replacements. The claims highlight Ukraine's strategy of targeting both frontline forces and the economic base of Russia's war effort.
