- Decision of Ukraine grappling with crisis of more than 5 lakh soldiers
Ukraine, which has been at war with Russia for the past two-and-a-half years, is grappling with a troop shortage crisis. Ukraine is taking new steps to address the persistent troop shortage. Meanwhile, the recruitment age of new youths in the Ukrainian army is also set to be reduced from 25 to 18. On the other hand, Ukraine has decided to prepare more than 10 thousand remote control robots from January 2025 to reduce the losses of soldiers.
The robot is capable of handling the firing line on the frontline and also delivering armored equipment and logistics to the troops present in the valley. This robot will also be effective in transporting wounded soldiers to safe places. The robot will also be able to carry wounded soldiers on a vehicle and protect them from Russian gunfire and drone attacks.
Robots were bought before the occupation of Kursk, Russia, now they make their own According to Ukraine's Deputy PM and Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov, 10 thousand robots will be deployed in January in the first phase. Then its number will increase. He said the robot was already being used in Russia's Kursk region, which Ukraine occupied in August 2016. These platform robots have proved to be efficient in delivering weapons equipment and relief materials to the army. Ukraine has also produced vehicles such as the indigenous Luke 2.0. Despite fighting a war, Ukraine has ramped up defense production and is making a number of weapons, including drones. Since 2023, Ukraine has multiplied the production of long-range drones.
Big success: Ukrainian drones destroy more than 10 thousand Russian tanks, Ukraine makes 4 million drones annually Cheap Drones: Ukraine has shocked the world with its technological advances during the war against Russia. At the beginning of the war, 10 thousand Russian tanks were destroyed by Ukrainian drones. Also, Ukraine destroyed 20 thousand vehicles. Russia's own tank brigade had to be withdrawn from the front.
Naval drones: Ukraine used naval drones to attack everything from bridges in Crimea to several ports and refineries in Russia. This caused Russia to suffer heavy losses in the Mediterranean. Ukraine has increased its drone production capacity over time, now capable of producing four million drones annually.
If there is a war like Ukraine, our army will be destroyed in 6 months: Britain Britain's Defense Secretary Alistair Carnes has warned that if the British army is forced to fight a war like Ukraine, it will be exhausted within 6 months. Speaking at a conference held at the Royal United Services Institute think tank in London, he said that according to statistics, Britain's army currently has 1,09,245 soldiers and 25,814 reserve volunteers.
