Troop shortage sapping morale, Ukraine’s President Zelensky says | BBC News

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has admitted that a lack of military manpower is sapping its forces’ morale.

He was speaking as new laws to boost army recruitment come into effect.

Prisoners will now be allowed to join, and fines have gone up for men who ignore the order to fight.

Ukraine’s forces are short on weapons and are trying to shore up a weakened front line. They are facing growing military pressure from Russia, which has made its largest territorial gains in the country in 18 months.
