Ukraine military seeks extra 500,000 soldiers - President Zelensky
Ukraine's leader admits mobilisation is a sensitive and costly issue as the war with Russia nears two-year mark.
Ukraine's military wants to mobilise up to 500,000 extra people, President Volodymyr Zelensky has revealed, as the war with Russia nears a two-year mark.
At a news conference in Kyiv, he said his commanders were seeking "450,000-500,000 individuals", admitting this was a "sensitive" and costly issue.
He said he needed more details before backing the move, hinting that 500,000 soldiers were already on the front.
His comments come in the wake of aid setbacks from the US and the EU.

How many people do they have of fighting age and condition? Or, are they looking to recruit foreigners?
Their army is comparatively old, since the way they mobilized didn't tap into the younger generations much. Many guys in their 20s and 30s were excempt from mobilization due to having either very young or three and more children
Not many since everybody left that shit hole of a country when zelensky decided to ruin it
Edit: truth hurts 🤕 eh
