This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When a vehicle is captured and then lost in service with its new owners, it is only added as a loss of the original operator to avoid double listings. When the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it's not included in the list. The Soviet flag is used when the equipment in question was produced prior to 1991. This list is constantly updated as additional footage becomes available.

Hear, hear! Zot all of the Democrats who are attacking President Trump. They can do that at DU with the rest of the “transgender”-enabler Democrats.
Doink!
Russia continues to publicly claim that it wants peace while offering no concessions of its own in sharp contrast with the concessions Ukraine has already offered. Reuters reported on March 9 that two US officials stated that the US is planning to use the March 11 US-Ukrainian talks in Saudi Arabia “in part to determine whether Ukraine is willing to make material concessions to Russia to end the war.”[1] One US official stated that Ukraine cannot say both “I want peace” and “I refuse to compromise on anything” at the upcoming talks. The other US official stated that the US wants “to see if the Ukrainians are interested not just in peace, but in a realistic [emphasis added] peace.” The Financial Times reported on March 9 that unspecified officials briefed on the upcoming US-Ukrainian negotiations stated that Ukraine will propose a partial ceasefire with Russia for long-range drone and missile strikes and combat operations in the Black Sea.[2] Ukrainian outlet Suspilne reported on March 10 that a source familiar with the Ukrainian delegation's position stated that Ukraine will also propose a prisoner of war (POW) exchange.[3] The Ukrainian source noted that these proposals are “realistic to implement quickly” and to “control.” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky first suggested a ceasefire in the air and sea on March 5, and Ukraine is offering the kind of ceasefires that are more straightforward and do not require extended negotiations or a complex monitoring process.[4] A ceasefire along the thousand kilometers of complex front line characterized by multiple “gray zones” where the lines of opposing forces are blurred would be extremely difficult to negotiate and monitor. Zelensky has also indicated several times — including in his February 28 Fox News interview — that he is willing to make concessions on territory, Ukraine's NATO membership, and his own tenure in office in order to secure a just and sustainable peace.[5]
Russian officials, in contrast, continue to reiterate Russian President Vladimir Putin's 2021 and 2022 demands. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov claimed in an interview to “New Regions of Russia” magazine published on March 10 that any future peace settlement must “eradicate” the “root causes” of the war.[6] Lavrov defined the “root causes” of the war as the alleged “threats to Russia's security from the Ukrainian and Western directions in general” that are due to NATO's eastward expansion and the Ukrainian government's alleged “extermination” of everything that is “connected with Russia and the Russian World [Russkiy Mir],” including Russian language, culture, Orthodoxy, and media. Lavrov similarly defined the alleged “root causes” of the war in late December 2024, and the Kremlin's rhetoric on this topic has not changed in the over two months, even after the start of US-Russian bilateral talks in February 2024.[7] Russia's repeated rhetoric about the “root causes” of the war and constant reiteration of its specific unchanged demands contrast sharply with the flexibility Ukraine has shown.[8]
Russian President Vladimir Putin approved a list on March 10 of instructions for the Russian government and the Defenders of the Fatherland Foundation aimed at increasing social benefits to Russian veterans, which will likely put further strain on the Russian budget and economy.[91] Putin called to extend the “Defenders of the Fatherland” Foundation's fund to family members of Russian servicemembers who are missing in action (MIA) in the war in Ukraine; to support combat veterans’ entrepreneurial activities and increase funding for state social assistance programs; to classify participants of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine as combat veterans; and to consider extending social support to the brothers and sisters of deceased Russian servicemembers if the siblings are under 18 years old and to unadopted children of the deceased servicemember. Putin also signed a decree on March 10 creating a commission in the State Council to support combat veterans and their families.[92] Russian Presidential Aide and Secretary of the State Council Alexei Dyumin stated that the new commission will coordinate federal and regional government efforts to support Russian veterans.[93] A Russian insider source claimed that the Defenders of the Fatherland Foundation does not have unlimited resources so expanding its functions will require increased state funding.[94] The insider source claimed that the proposal about supporting veterans’ entrepreneurship is aimed at increasing Russia's economic development but will require subsidies, preferential lending programs, business training, and tax breaks. The insider source noted that there is an imbalance among Russian federal subjects, with some regions providing veterans with significant benefits, while others offer minimal aid. The source claimed that Kremlin attempts to unify support measures across Russia will put extra burdens on the budgets of the federal subjects.
Russian federal subjects continue to increase financial incentives to Russian military personnel to boost recruitment. Irkutsk Oblast Governor Igor Kobzev stated on March 10 that the oblast increased its one-time payment to people who sign military service contracts with the Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) by a factor of 2.5 to one million rubles (about $11,400).[95]

Here comes another Foreigner trying to sway American foreign policy.
Also UAVs far above usual (241). Does this mean a major drone attack on many parts of Ukraine, or swarming of the more successful Ukraine military drone attacksl? I know 47 warned Russia about mass attacks of all Uke civilian areas, but has he done anything about activating the moves against Russian banks yet? Or is his main activity leading to a lower stock market?
The Defense Ministry made a statement on mobilization and asked the Church for prayers
Several of our sources in the ministry believe that serious mobilization will have to be carried out, and soon. “Not everyone here supports mobilization. But, probably, we cannot do without such a forced measure. Firstly, the fighting has intensified now, we are moving forward in the same Kursk region, but we are suffering losses. Secondly, Trump said that Russia allegedly has no trump cards in the Ukrainian conflict. Mobilization could become such a trump card,” one of the channel's interlocutors believes.
Another Defense Ministry representative admitted that the decision on mobilization “could be very risky.” And asked the Russian Orthodox Church “to pray for everything to be in order.” According to a source in the Church, this request was received by Patriarch Kirill personally from Andrei Belousov. “Andrei Removich has been heard. We are starting to pray for the right decision to be made on mobilization. And so that it is perceived by society correctly, so that it does not cause unrest and an inadequate reaction in Russia,” the channel's source said.
Also, before the negotiations between the Americans and representatives of the Kiev regime, the Church “intensified prayers for the admonition of Donald Trump, so that he does not resume military aid to our enemies and does not do other ill-considered things”. At the same time, a number of influential representatives of our elites are against a new serious mobilization. The Ministry of Defense admits that “we will have to work seriously with such people.” It should also be said that Vladimir Putin has not made any decisions regarding mobilization at the moment.

Kyiv plans to propose a partial ceasefire—halting air and naval combat while continuing ground operations. This contradicts Trump’s stance, which calls for a full ceasefire.
Will Russia accept such a deal? Unlikely, given its air superiority and the disproportionate destruction in Ukraine. The drone strike may serve as a message to the West—Ukraine can conduct large-scale air attacks, making its proposal a compromise rather than a unilateral concession.
Meanwhile, calls for retaliation are growing in Russia. Lawmakers suggest launching “Oreshnik” missiles in response, as Moscow weighs escalation against the need to maintain Western relations.

❗️I would like to note the presence of electronic warfare systems on ATV, but this did not help much against Ukrainian FPV drones :)
