Ukraine’s Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) are sending soldiers who have not been properly trained into the trenches on the front line, The Wall Street Journal has said.
The newspaper quoted a mobilised AFU soldier who said that the new recruits were sent to the line of contact after minimal training.
“According to the 37-year-old military man involved in the fighting in the east of the country, just arrived from the training ground recruits in his unit already the next day went to the trenches, where he expects heavy casualties among them due to lack of experience,” the publication said.
According to the Ukrainian serviceman, the AFU pays little attention to such a crucial discipline as medical training during the training of soldiers.
We shall remind you that the La Reppublica newspaper reported earlier that the mass escape of Ukrainian soldiers from the battlefield had become a big problem for the AFU General Staff.
