Unfortunately yes ,I just hope that they have prepared defensive lines to fall back to , I think it's a mistake trying to hold out like bakmuth it comes at a costly price in men and equipment, at the time bakmuth was re-enforced at least four with the some of the best units they had at the time and still lost it ,yes they kill thousands of Russians but lost numbers themselves,
I believe this is where some of the drama around the military Leadership is coming from

It's showing the EU or NATO without the US money and firepower are in a bit of trouble going forward,it's nothing new only a handful of countries spend the requisite 2% of GDP on defence, we already knew 12 months ago that NATO stores were running low and the EU then decided to pledge 1 million rounds of artillery ammunition despite not having the stock or the resources to do it ,we can blame the US to a degree but it's the EU who neutered defence spending and was more interested in governance and mass migration,

Russia doesn't want to actually control these places it's purely area denial operations, we want to take town A but the defends they don't want to leave so we will reduce town to Rubble so that there is not to hold or defend and move on to the next objective, once adviika is done Chasiv Yar will be the next town /city we will be discussing on here,
Totally agree with mobilisation it should be anyone 18 + should be eligible unless they have an actual disability,if I read correctly they have several million people unemployed but can't find people to mobilize,but others want the EU to forcibly Deport people to Ukraine to fight,they need to be taking a leaf out of Russias play book and look at everyone capable of fighting not just those over 27

I've been saying it for months something is going wrong and there is splits inside Ukraine they can keep sacking people from defence ministers to military Generals but who sacks the people making the poor decisions , since Kharkiv was liberated it's like the wheels came off and rather than pressing the advantage when the Russians withdrew across the river at Kherson they just seemed to have stopped and decided we are digging instead and we will wait for more US /EU equipment and munitions when they already had an actual advantage and the Russians were in disarray,now the Russians are pushing forward and slowly but surely taking territories, and yes they are having successes with their drone ops but they are physically losing ground in Ukraine,so they absolutely need to change tact and get moving on the ground or face more losses while blaming the Americans which they have solely become reliant for military and financial aid, and to think zelensky himself said the military didn't give him good enough reasons to mobilise up to 500,000 men , adviika is a good enough reason ,the lack of men in units is another good enough reason, winning the war is a good enough reasons,
International brigades will only do so much because they then have to be trained and equipped and deployed and that takes time and money nobody seems to have,tens of billions have gone to the Ukrainian military yet units are funding equipment and supplies through social media,that's absolutely not right or fair ,
I can see the military Leadership getting completely hacked off and saying its time to let us do the job or move aside

There's a lots lads and Girls from all over the world including a group from here currently on the front lines in this case a group of poles covered in tricolour patches, I think going forward they will struggle to find international recruits the initial romanticism of going off to fight for a just cause has worn off ,there is foreign units Actively looking for qualified individuals ie military trained and experienced and equipped from snipers to medics, but there is no guarantee that your not dead within 6 months , others are asking for a fee to place lads in Units like a finder's fee which they will also ask for cash directly from recruits for admin ,
With the current situation I can't see many volunteering from here or the EU they need Ukrainians more than anything
