RT @Tatarigami_UA: A grim but insightful article in the FT discusses acute manpower shortages on the frontlines and inadequate training.

While it quotes Ukrainian officials citing 30,000 recruits per month, after reading the article, you might get feeling as though Ukraine is struggling to get any recruits. One of the reasons is that after completing training, new recruits are often assigned to newly formed brigades, even if they had a reference from another unit that recruited them. As a result, experienced brigades like the 72nd, now heavily engaged in Vuhledar and fighting since day one, are losing their veteran core without properly passing experience to fresh recruits, as most are directed to new units.

In short, the problem isn’t a lack of willing Ukrainians, recruitment numbers are up, but rather a bizarre management decision on top

RT @shashj: Our cover story this week, on the state of the war. "Those older than 60, who do not risk being drafted, are much more gung-ho about the war than the young: 54% of them believe that Ukraine is winning, compared to 31% of those between 18 and 25." https://www.economist.com/briefing/2024/09/26/ukraine-is-on-the-defensive-militarily-economically-and-diplomatically

RT @BBS3AB: Eliminating strikes against enemy infantry: live action in the Kharkiv region!

This is how the occupiers run under the sights of the fighters from the Third Assault Brigade. Fast, but not for long.

The enemy group was driven into a grove and blown up. Others were struck at their positions. Three more were eliminated in open terrain.

Fire was coordinated and targets destroyed by the soldiers of the Unmanned Systems Battalion, as well as the “Revenge Group” from the 1st Mechanized Battalion.

🫡 We destroy the enemy every day!

RT @RALee85: "But despite these achievements, Ukraine’s troops and their commanders are growing concerned over manpower problems, particularly the quality of new recruits and the speed at which they are injured or killed in combat.

The Ukrainian infantry is most acutely affected: its troops are grappling with exhaustion and flagging morale, leading some to abandon their positions and allow Russia to capture more land, according to frontline commanders...

new conscripts lack basic combat skills, motivation and often abandon their positions when they come under fire.

The commanders estimated that 50 to 70 per cent of new infantry troops were killed or wounded within days of starting their first rotation."
