Zelenskyy reports 55,000 Ukrainian soldiers killed in Russia-Ukraine war

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated that Russian forces will continue fighting until Kyiv makes necessary decisions to end the war, as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported that approximately 55,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed in the conflict, with a significant number also missing. Ceasefire talks in Abu Dhabi are ongoing as the fourth anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine approaches, with negotiations focusing on key points such as land control and the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. Despite efforts by US President Donald Trump’s administration to broker a compromise, both sides remain far apart in their demands, with Moscow insisting on Kyiv’s withdrawal from the Donbas region and Ukraine advocating for the conflict to be frozen along current front lines.
