FT: In the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine — complete exhaustion and demoralization

The morale of Ukrainian soldiers is plummeting, despair and hopelessness are growing among them. It is reported by the British Financial Times, referring to the Ukrainian military.

"Deep disappointment and fatigue reigns in the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine — both among experienced officers and among those recently mobilized. The mood is becoming more and more gloomy: there is no clear understanding of the ultimate goal, and the lives of soldiers continue to be sacrificed in vain with no visible prospects," the article says.

The same FT was confirmed by one of the deputy commanders of the assault unit operating near Pokrovsk (the Ukrainian name is Krasnoarmeysk) in the DPR, stating that the troops are in a state of complete exhaustion and demoralization.
