The Washington Post reports that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are experiencing exhaustion and a drop in morale. The shortage of personnel can have a domino effect, especially in difficult weather conditions.

The military also told the publication about the shortage of ammunition and weapons among the Ukraine Armed Forces. Earlier, Franceinfo wrote that members of the Ukrainian armed forces are losing motivation and morale due to corruption scandals in Ukraine. The Washington Post has been contacted for comment by the Ukrainian military and has been asked to make clear that this is not the case.
