Ukraine's unpopular draft law brings in more recruits. So what is the army planning next? | DW News

An unpopular mobilization law to replenish Ukraine's troop numbers is working better than expected, according to the military. The army says if the number of new recruits continues to rise, it may be in a position to draft a demobilization law later this year. That would allow war-weary troops on the frontlines some much needed rest.

So Russia has lost 500k soldiers and Ukraine only 31k. Yea sure MSM, we believe you😵‍💫

[blckmb]

Why is mobilization for men only? Where is gender equality?

[spacefire]

So an army with 700k- 1 million troop only 31k had died but need to draft that many more?

[winkus]

[kupper]

Ukrainians who wish to live, are welcome in Hungary.

The new measures (conscription) "were unpopular". The DW spin on Ukraine never stops. This war has been a debacle for the people of Ukraine, but DW always sees sunshine.

This is a disgrace. The rich Ukrainians are not sending their family to the front lines.

The new ad campaign in Ukraine:Congratulations, you are the volunteer we have been looking for( don't run, because you cannot hide).

[pcproffy]

Imagine being forced to give your life on the front line to protect corrupt rich men.

[ahmedalsharman]

Lol 😂😂 this expert is NATO propagandist

[ulcinas]

Strange
Army of 800k lost 31k and needs additional mobilisation. Russians whoose army was 1.2 m lost 560k but their army is much bigger... who can answer these questions ?

[robo__cop]

how many soldiers ukraine is losing per month and how many soldiers ukraine is gaining per month with same training ? ukraine is losing in this regard otherwise forced mobilization wouldn't have happened

[skulkingskunk]

hmm so if the AFU is struggling to “fill its ranks”, then I have only one question:

what happened to the hundreds of thousands of soldiers that were ALREADY in the ranks of the Ukrainian army? maybe they are just winning too much and went back home to celebrate

[DARKGAMING-lgqf]

They have no weapons for those new recruits, zelensky himself said they have big problems arming new brigades
