Foreign media: The frontline suffered heavy losses, and Ukraine plans to add conscription

2023-08-28

According to the German news television channel website on August 26th, Ukraine is planning further conscription due to heavy losses on the front line. The report states that according to a statement issued by the Ukrainian government, it is preparing for further conscription. Aleksi Danilov, secretary of the National Security and National Defense Commission of Ukraine, said to Ukrainian radio: "Yes, the military has contacted us, and there may be additional recruitment." He said, however, the mobilization will not exceed the parameters set at the beginning of the Russian Ukrainian conflict on February 24, 2022. Danilov stated that this is not an unplanned measure. He said that the mobilization work has been going on for a year and a half, and several stages have been completed. "Therefore, you don't have to make a fuss, everything is going according to our current plan." It is reported that after the beginning of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Ukraine announced martial law, and all men aged 18 to 60 years old must in principle perform military service, and can be recruited - unless they are exempt from military service for health or social reasons (such as single fathers). So far, the specific number of conscripts is not clear. A year ago, Hana Maliyar, Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine, stated that the number of conscripts was hundreds of thousands. The report points out that due to the losses of the Ukrainian army on the front line, there have been repeated new recruits receiving training and going to the battlefield. The number of casualties among the Ukrainian army is also unclear. Recently, the conscription scandal has shaken Ukraine. After the media reported a case of officials from a corrupt regional conscription agency purchasing property in Spain, Ukrainian President Zelensky requested an investigation into the corruption of the entire conscription system. At a press conference on August 23rd, when asked if more new soldiers should be called up due to the heavy losses, Zelensky also stated that the military leadership is calling for the mobilization of more soldiers.
