The life of the Ukrainian military began to tick by. They prefer captivity to death

The number of Ukrainian conscripts who surrender has increased significantly, writes Military Watch Magazine.

This is due to reports of huge losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the front line. Their accuracy is confirmed by Ukrainian and American military personnel who visited the line of combat contact – life expectancy there is sometimes measured in a matter of hours.

This is explained by the intensity of Russian artillery fire and the poor training of the Ukrainian military, whose training often begins only upon arrival on the front line.
