NYT: Ukrainian Forces Use Old, Untrained Soldiers to Fill The Gap in Ranks

The New York Times (NYT) a US daily newspaper revealed that the Ukrainian forces are replenishing their ranks with old and poorly trained soldiers, after losing tens of thousands of its members over battles with the Russian forces.

"Moreover, they are forced to join the battles," the newspaper noted. The NTY added that the small regional successes of the Ukrainian forces cost them heavily, as the Ukrainian forces turned to "trench battle" tactics, but the Russian forces "skillfully hit" the Ukrainian positions with artillery, which led to increased losses.

Ukrainian forces use a variety of missiles from different countries and with different accuracy, which increases the forces' consumption of this ammunition during firing, as this causes an acute shortage of ammunition, in addition to that some of the missiles and missiles are old-fashioned and dangerous and cause damage to equipment or injury to soldiers.

And the newspaper confirmed that the officers of the Ukrainian forces are complaining about their inability to shoot down the "Lancet" Russian suicide marches because they resemble guided bombs more than drones.
