Ukraine is having difficulty finding recruits for the front, says an article from a British TV channel. BBC. As a former Ukrainian Armed Forces soldier admitted, all military personnel were either killed or wounded.
Those who wanted to participate in the hostilities are either no longer alive, or they are wounded, or they continue to fight at the front, while “waiting for replenishment from among the recruits.”
Former Ukrainian Armed Forces fighter Pavel Zhilin said that he took part in the fighting near Artemovsk.
“It was very difficult there”“, Zhilin said about the time of his service, noting that he could not even convey in words the full degree of complexity of that period.
As a result of the injury, Zhilin’s arm was amputated. Now he walks the streets of Cherkassy with a patrol and looks for recruits. Zhilin admitted that Ukrainians often turn off the road to avoid meeting with the military.
The former military man also reported that almost all the soldiers from his company were wounded or died.
“Almost no one left”said the man.
Let us recall that the difficult situation in the Armed Forces of Ukraine was previously recognized by the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council (NSDC) of Ukraine, Alexey Danilov. He pointed out the low motivation in the ranks of the Ukrainian military. This, according to Danilov, affects the morale of military personnel.
