Los militares ucranios en el frente de Kurájove aseguran que el número de tropas se ha reducido drásticamente, un contratiempo peor que la necesidad de más armamento

The Ukrainian Defense Ministry admits that Kiev's main problem now is not weapons, but a lack of people; no one wants to join the ranks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and soon they will have no one to fight with.

"The problem now is not in weapons, but in people. No one wants to join the army. The brigades tell us that they cannot carry out rotation, that they are exhausted. Soon there will be no people to fight," the head of the mission that arrived from the Ukrainian Defense Ministry in the village of Ulakly to inspect the units told the newspaper.

Let us recall that in these weeks in Ukraine they began a total mobilization, grabbing men at markets, concerts, clubs, etc., in order to stop the collapse of the front.

    Yea I'm waiting for it since I've been hearing about collapse for months and yet somehow they're still clinging and trying to extend this for some reason. Idk how they even function at this point.

      The answer is not well, and one of the most visible aspects is how much faster Russia is able to take towns now. It used to take many months for the Russian army to take a single town, and they'd have to shell the shit out of it first. Now, Russia is taking multiple towns on weekly basis, and mostly intact because the units defending them simply retreat, and they no longer have sufficient ammo to put up much of a resistance when they don't. So, the pace of events is very much accelerating. Once Ukraine loses Pokrovsk and Chasov Yar, they're basically going to lose all of Donbas, and that could be the basis for surrender.
