List of Russian generals killed during the Russian invasion of Ukraine

On 23 April 2022, Ukraine's Ministry of Defence claimed a strike on a Russian 49th Combined Arms Army command post in Russian-controlled Kherson Oblast killed two generals and critically injured one.

On 14 March 2023, Kolesnikov appeared in an interview with Vladimir Solovyov on Russian TV, reportedly during the latter's trip to Syria.

[75] The Japanese government estimates that 20 Russian generals have been killed in the war, based on intelligence gathered by Japan in cooperation with the United States and Europe; retired general Kiyofumi Iwata [jp], former chief of staff of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force, described the tally as "unbelievably high".

[13][7] High-ranking casualties in the Russian Navy include Captain 1st Rank Andrei Paliy, deputy commander of the Black Sea Fleet.

[82][83] Anton Kurpin, the commander of the Russian cruiser Moskva, has also been reported as killed, although Russia has not confirmed this.

[3] The deaths of Russian officers on the front line have been attributed to a number of Russian vulnerabilities in Ukraine, including the use of unsecured communications and the movement of officers to the front line to boost flagging morale and address discipline issues, such as looting.

[5] In March 2022, two American military officials told The New York Times that Russian generals in Ukraine frequently had conversations on unsecured phones and radios, and that in at least one instance, a general and his staff were killed after the Ukrainians intercepted a call, geolocated it, and attacked the location.
