Where did the old one go??

In a valley far from the front lines last week, several men practiced dropping a half-full bottle of water from a small aerial drone, as though it were a grenade. Others fired rifles at targets 100 yards away. A third group set off for a trek through the surrounding hills, which burst with white and yellow flowers.
Almost none of them had military experience before last year. The Ukrainian military is racing to turn civilians into elite soldiers for the cutting edge of a critical summer offensive.

What an ignorant and silly question.
More name calling. That’s all you do.
LOL!!

The article doesn’t say this group is in addition to others. It says it’s new.
.
Ach. Sturmtruppen.
And the Kremlin's comment on that is actually what ?
- “Lies ! All be NATO mercenaries, that's why we can't take a friggin town !”

- “look, globohomos ! They need to train soldiers. We just take our mobiks and push them forward”.
Help us to understand.
Ukrainian started out with 600,000...
What Mariupol airport doink? Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
That’s right. 400k dead and/or wounded. It’s no wonder Zelensky is staying out of the country. Some say he’s at risk.
Then you’re an idiot.
It is new.
And is in addition to those already fighting.
Duh.
See? More names. I suppose it’s difficult defending Biden while watching the Ukes get drop kicked.
More stupidity from a Russian propagandist.
