Russia appeals for new recruits to join Ukraine war effort – BBC News



Russia’s Kremlin has launched an extensive campaign for new recruits to join the Ukraine war effort.

Russia does not give numbers, but Western officials say between 70,000 and 80,000 Russian troops have been killed or wounded since it launched its invasion six months ago.

In order to attract fresh recruits, the authorities are offering volunteers huge sums of money, plots of land and even premium places for their children in Russian schools.

Recruiters have even been visiting Russian prisons to sign up inmates, promising them freedom and money.

  4. Russians have to start protecting their sons, their fathers, their husbands, their brothers….and why are these Russians still trusting anything that comes out of the Kremlin….even if the Russian soldiers survive, they will never get the money, nor the land promised, that money is going for mansions and yachts for the Putin elites….sorry to call an old man "stupid", but that old man believing Putin's lies is truly stupid, protect your grandsons old man!….as far as Russians being more powerful, they have more bodies to throw into hell, that's all….God! I am old, but sometimes I hold so much hate and disrespect for people of my generations, a lot of young people's lives are lost because of old, arrogant, behind the times, motivation killing old people.

  5. Every conflict ends with a peace treaty. This will also end in an agreement, but on both sides, many people died, and even more, will die. I hear that everyone is talking about providing more weapons to Ukraine, but I don’t understand why. This war must be stopped.

  6. Regarding his comment that Russian soldiers are very resilient like they were in WW2. Yes, very true, but this is more like WW1, where Russian soldiers were fighting in foreign land and mother Russia was not being invaded, and they were slaughtered by German soldiers on German and Polish land. Thus, no motivation to fight in WW1 and no motivation to fight now. Therefore, expect continued Russian losses, but bigger since Russia has lost it's best soldiers that will be replaced by inexperienced civilians in uniform looking to surrender ASAP.

  7. Can you imagine if the US or Nato lost this amour of troops.Russian military must be a real mess and a joke.if Ukraine is hurting Russia This badly Nato would absolutely smash them.
    Not taking anything away from the Ukrainian Army just Nato would unleash their full air power and advanced military weapons that Ukraine are only getting a taste of nothing like they could get if they we're Nato.

  9. The WWII analogy about Russian resilience doesn't hold with their unprovoked invasion of Ukraine. In WWII, Russian soldiers were defending "Mother Russia." Today, the Ukrainians are defending their homeland against invaders who really have little or no idea why they're there (de-Nazification doesn't really hold any weight, as things have worked out). And in WWII, you didn't need microprocessors in your weapons systems. It was dumb and brute force against more dumb and brute force. As Stalin pointed out, "Quantity has a quality all its own." It really shows that Western force is scalpel sharp (Javelin, Excaliber HIMARS), while so much of Russian force is back to being dumb, no matter the "scary" names they have for their weapons. Western weapons can take out a command post or battery of howitzers with four or five shells. Russians instead aim missiles and artillery shells at "area targets": city centers, shopping malls, apartment complexes, and so on, hoping for hits. And it's not just the "chips" that make the difference. Russian soldiers were motivated in WWII (fighting evil); in Ukraine, they're not (they're evil).
