- Source: 2023 Ukrainian counteroffensive order of battle
The 2023 Ukrainian counteroffensive was a major offensive against Russian forces occupying Ukrainian territory with the goal of breaching the front lines. Efforts were made in many directions, primarily in the Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia oblasts. In total, Ukraine recaptured 14 villages with a total pre-war population of around 5,000 but suffered heavy casualties in the process. Western officials have said that such losses were not unexpected for attacking forces. Casualty estimates for Ukrainian forces during the counteroffensive range from 90,000 to 400,000. The counteroffensive was widely regarded as a crucial moment in the war but also as a failure for Ukrainian forces.
