Storyline


Ukraine is constantly training new civilian volunteers to help fight against the Russian forces, as the country claims to have a total of 1 million in its armed forces and aims to recapture the Russia-controlled south regions.

A group of civilian volunteers have recently joined Ukraine's Territorial Defense which is operating together with the army against Russia. During a regular training day in a forest near Budcha, these volunteer fighters were going through the ambush training.

"[Today our training was] capturing Russian soldiers and Russian military vehicles," said Andriy Bat, a civilian volunteer fighter.

Surprising the Russians from behind in order to neutralize their commanders has proven effective so far. The training required for this, however, had to be drastically cut short.

"In general, normal education takes about two-three months but we don't have so much time. That's why we had to reduce it so that the group will be ready in four weeks," said Andriy Dziuba, colonel of Ukraine's Territorial Defense.

But a significant part of this alleged million is already involved in defending the remaining Donbass territory and could not be used in any counter-offensive. Nevertheless, the country's military is optimistic.

"All volunteers, those without experience and those with experience, such as veterans from the Police or Ukrainian Armed Forces, they take their old uniforms and go defend their community, their Oblast, their motherland. So, if needed, there will be more than 1 million," said Taras Shapravsky, a soldier with the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Despite the lack of official training, the Ukrainian military is certainly not lacking one thing: combat experience. And those who are just enlisting now will probably get it sooner rather than later.
