ウクライナ共和国 ordered a general 動員 of the male 全住民 between the ages of 25 to 60 when Russia 開始する,打ち上げるd its 侵略 on Feb. 24, 2022. The 広大な 大多数 joined up as volunteers. As the war grinds on, ウクライナ共和国 has ramped up the 草案.

The 18-month service 限界 sought by the 抗議する人s would be the same 最大限 as before the war. It is 現在/一般に open-ended for draftees. The 抗議する人s, who are part of a loose 国家の 網状組織, want the Verkhovna Rada, ウクライナ共和国's 議会, to consider possible 代案/選択肢s on service time.

"I live in constant 恐れる for his life," Valeriia Koliada, 35, said of her husband, who volunteered for the 軍の.

"It´s 神経-wracking for me. He is tired 同様に," she said. "We are a young family. I also want to have a child and sleep 静める at night."

抗議する人s also gathered in at least six other cities.

There are no 調印するs that Ukrainian public support for the fight against Russia´s 侵略 is 病弱なing. In Russia, 一方/合間, 当局 have 割れ目d dow n on anti-war 抗議するs, and critics of the Kremlin´s 政策s are on the whole 速く silenced.

Even so, U.S. 公式の/役人s say that ロシアの 軍隊s are experiencing 意気込み/士気 problems as another winter (選挙などの)運動をする ぼんやり現れるs. The White House said Thursday that Russia is 遂行する/発効させるing 兵士s who disobey orders and 脅すing entire 部隊s with death if they 退却/保養地 from Ukrainian 大砲 解雇する/砲火/射撃.

The 最新の hot 位置/汚点/見つけ出す draining 資源s is Avdiivka, a city in the eastern Donetsk 地域 that ロシアの 軍隊s 部分的に/不公平に 占領する. Avdiivka´s 場所 供給するs Ukrainian 軍隊s with 大砲 advantages over the city of Donetsk and could serve as a 開始する,打ち上げる pad for them to 解放する the 残り/休憩(する) of Donetsk.

The Avdiivika fight and other 戦う/戦いs are draining both 味方するs´ 資源s.

Moscow has stepped up its 軍の 生産/産物 and has 報道によれば turned to North Korea and Iran to 補充する its 備蓄(する)s, 観察者/傍聴者s say, while Kyiv is 勧めるing its Western 同盟(する)s to keep 供給するing 決定的な support.
