These are military personnel whose bodies were left on the battlefield - they were not taken home and were not buried...And their families will not receive compensation because they are “missing.”

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Ukraine Valery Zaluzhny gave an interview to the British magazine The Economist. Here are the most interesting theses:
1. Zaluzhny declares that he trusts his generals and listens to people on the ground, since all the initiative comes from there.
2. According to Zaluzhny, partial mobilization in Russia worked. Despite all the problems and equipment of the mobilized, they pose a threat to Ukraine. The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine estimates the future reserve for mobilization at 1.2-1.5 million people.
3. Zaluzhny has no doubts that Russia will again go to Kiev. According to him, 200,000 new soldiers are now being trained to march on the Ukrainian capital.
4. Concerning the mobilization in Ukraine, Zaluzhny said that additional measures of this nature are not needed. The Ukrainian army has enough people, but not enough armored vehicles and ammunition.
5. Based on this, Zaluzhny actually made it clear about the next goal of the Ukrainian offensive - this is access to Melitopol to take control of the land corridor to the Crimea under fire control.
