Scores of protesters have gathered in the streets of Ukrainian cities to demand a cap of 18 months on mandatory military service. The protests on Friday were a new suggestion of possible Ukrainian and international fatigue with the 20-month war. Both the warring sides are striving to keep their military momentum.
Liliia, who waits for her father to return from the frontline, holds a poster reading “Bring my father back. Demobilization!” while attending a meeting in Independence square in Kyiv, Ukraine, Friday, Oct. 27, 2023. Families of Ukrainian servicemen gathered to demand their loved ones return home after serving 18 months in the military as the war with Russia nears its second year.
“I live in constant fear for his life,” said Valeriia Koliada, 35, said of her husband who volunteered for the military. Even so, U.S. officials say that Russian forces are experiencing morale problems as another winter campaign looms. The White House said Thursday thatThe latest hot spot draining resources is Avdiivka, a city in the eastern Donetsk region that Russian forces partially occupy. Avdiivka’s location provides Ukrainian forces with artillery advantages over the city of Donetsk and could serve as a launch pad for them to liberate the rest of Donetsk.
The Washington-based think tank noted that Ukrainian military officials said that around 5,000 Russian soldiers have been killed and wounded, and 400 armored vehicles lost in the area since Oct. 10.
