  • Ukranian Defence Ministry amends order on military medical commissions, expanding limits of fitness for service

    the words and figures “with the exception of articles 2-c, 4-c, 5-c, 12-c, 13-c, 14-c, 17-c, 21-c and 22-c” have been removed from the Regulation, i.e. everyone will be recognised as fit under the “controversial” articles:

    2-c – clinically treated tuberculosis;

    4-c – viral hepatitis with minor functional impairment;

    5-c – asymptomatic HIV carrier;

    12-c - slowly progressive and non-progressive with minor functional impairment and rare exacerbations of anaemia, blood clotting disorders, purpura, haemorrhagic conditions, other diseases of the blood and haematopoietic organs, and some disorders involving the immune mechanism;

    13-c - diseases of the endocrine system with minor functional disorders;

    14-c - mild, short-term, painful manifestations of mental disorders;

    17-c - neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders with moderate or short-term manifestations, with an asthenic state;

    21-c – slowly progressive diseases of the central nervous system with minor functional disorders;

    22-c – episodic and paroxysmal disorders, except for epilepsy, with minor impairment of organ and system functions.






  • I think considering the failure of the couteroffensive, as well as the delays in Western equipment and the severity of Russian rocket attacks it’s fair to say that Ukraine is operating at a pretty large materiel disadvantage. Also we’ve seen the problems faced by the Ukrainians when it comes to conscription, seemingly coming to a head with the firing of the enlistment guys. So without sounding like a bot, what exactly is holding the Ukrainians together? Pure ideology? and an (understandable imo) unwillingness for big arrows from Wide Putin? Or am I overestimating the damage dealt to Ukraine’s ability to wage war?

    Thinking about it, this war isn’t going to end for a very long time unless Putin comes up with some “knockout blow” or Ukraine has a drastic change in management. Or maybe they really will fight to the last Ukranian. yea
