Ukrainian soldiers told the Kyiv Independent they're worried about running out of combat-capable people to continue fighting against Russia as the war rages on.
In a report published on Thursday, multiple soldiers fighting in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk Oblast said that it was becoming increasingly difficult to make a major breakthrough in the area.
While Russia continues to send ammunition and large numbers of troops to replenish the front lines, Ukrainian soldiers said they were worried about how long they will be able to keep up with the pace of the war.
"If combat-capable people like us run out, we could only be replaced by people who don't know anything," Roman, who has been serving since 2016, told the Kyiv Independent.
A driver, who is deployed with the 92nd Separate Assault Brigade near Bakhmut, also told the publication that he was worried about the possibility of the country running out of experienced and motivated soldiers.
"We're already running out of people," the driver, whose call sign is "Ninja," said. "The war will be very, very long."
Ukraine has not released official death toll figures, but US officials told The New York Times in August that the number likely stands at approximately 500,000.

The romantic vision of the valiant Ukrainian soldiers fighting to the end is fantasy created by the US State Department and CIA.
And it's utter BS.
They're ready to fold. If they don't get this new round of funding from the US they'll collapse suddenly, their will exhausted.
500,000 casualties. Another 500,000 draft age men left the country when they still could.
NeoCons are happy to sacrifice Ukrainian women, too. All for their project.
so when is the glorious Russian Victory Parade?
just days away?
Then maybe they sue for peace or surrender? Time for that civil war to end.
Did the NYT really say 500,000 deaths ?
Even NPR says 50K Russian deaths.
It does not have to end up like the Paraguayan War, all the able-bodied males fought in the war and were killed.
The link is in the original BI article.
MYT from August. It didn’t get repeated much lol
They have been losing I’d guess 2 THOUSAND KIA a day, probably another 4000 WIA.
(military summary channel)
awful…
Russian population 145 million
Ukraine before war 44 million
2023 Ukraine population 36 million ( lost population from Russian controlled areas and refugees fleeing)
How many Ukrainians have to die to cover up the crimes of The Democrat Party Organized Crime Syndicate in Ukraine?
The globohomo neoCONs will soon insist on sending American boys over there to die so they can keep their grift flowing.
Money and arms can’t compensate for a lack of manpower. It is a war of attrition, which translates into an unwinnable war for Ukraine. Time to end this senseless death and destruction. This war started in 2014.
Tons fled.
Contrast to Israeli reservists returning from overseas.
Remember the lies and bullsh** earlier this year when the MSM and Zeepers here told us "no, Ukraine has only lost 40K, its the Russians who have lost 300K or more"
I doubt we will ever really know. But it’s basically had an initial invasion phase, then settled into the Ukes throwing waves of fresh conscripts into the teeth of a wall of Russian artillery. Trench warfare has abounded. Add in a bunch of modern techy gizmo weapons and other lunacies.... and this shows all the signs of some ungodly casualty numbers.
An article like this from the notoriously Globalist-Marxist Business Inside Her ?
Things must really be bad.
The deep-state warmongering neocons in the Kremlin should stop attacking, annexing countries all over the place and stop fomenting war against Israel.
Israel has now declared Russia as one of its worst enemies, because of its fullhearted support for Iran and Hamas.
Israel says Russia has become obscene.
I FULLY agree with Israel on this.
Do YOU also agree with Israel that Russia has become an obscene part of the Iran-Hamas alliance?
Time for you to support Israel.
If you dont condemn Israels worst enemies : the Iran-Hamas-Russia-Alliance, it would make you “intellectually complicit” with this terror-organisation.

You can replace weapons and ammo but not soldiers.
