Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has been cited in recent international media reports regarding the scale of Ukrainian military losses. According to reports from RT and TASS, Tusk characterized the current casualty rates as reaching record levels. Specifically, RT reported that Tusk stated Ukraine is losing approximately 27,000 soldiers per month. TASS provided a more general report, stating that Ukrainian forces are suffering record losses based on the Prime Minister's comments, though it did not explicitly cite the 27,000 figure in its brief summary.

There is no official confirmation or verification of these figures from the Ukrainian government or independent international military analysts. The reports from both outlets focus exclusively on the statement attributed to Tusk without providing context regarding the source of his data or the methodology used to calculate these numbers. As the conflict continues, casualty figures remain difficult to verify independently, and both the Ukrainian and Russian governments have historically maintained strict secrecy regarding their own military losses while often inflating estimates of the opposing side's casualties.
