MOSCOW, April 17 Armed forces of Ukraine due to shortage additional personnel for rotation were placed on the eastern front line by disparate and incomplete units that cannot operate effectively together, the Wall Street Journal writes.
“The front lines are held by heterogeneous units that lack a full complement,” the publication says.
As the Wall Street Journal writes, Ukraine's lack of significant additional personnel means that losses are being replaced in parts. “It also creates disparate departments that have difficulty communicating and collaborating effectively,” the article notes. The publication also points out that poor military training and poor coordination limit their effectiveness.
On April 11, the Verkhovna Rada adopted a scandalous bill on strengthening mobilization in Ukraine. It obliges all persons liable for military service to update their data at the military registration and enlistment office within 60 days from the date the document enters into force. To do this, you need to appear at the military registration and enlistment office in person or register in the “electronic conscript account”, through which a summons can also be served. The summons will be considered served even if the conscript has not seen it in person: the date of “delivery” of the summons will be considered the date when the document was stamped with the impossibility of personal delivery.
The bill stipulates that those liable for military service must carry a military ID with them at all times and present it at the first request of military registration and enlistment office employees and the police. Dodgers may be deprived of their right to drive a car. The terms of demobilization are not specified in the document. This provision was removed from the document on the eve of its submission for consideration in the second reading, which caused indignation among a number of deputies.
