The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine expects 150 thousand mobilized Russians arrival. They have to replenish for the losses of the invaders at the front.

This was announced by the Minister of Defense of Ukraine Oleksii Reznikov.

“They will still prepare the next 150,000 mobilized Russians for two or three months, and then they will decide how to use it,” Oleksii Reznikov said.

According to the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, only since the beginning of the war, the losses of the Russian troops have amounted to more than 50,000 people killed.

At the same time, Oleksii Reznikov noted that the mobilized still need to be “clothed, fed, and armed.”

Reznikov also added that Russia tried to order 200,000 bulletproof vests and 500,000 sets of winter clothing from Turkey through third countries, but received a refusal.

The Minister of Defense of Ukraine emphasized that the Ukrainian General Staff has prepared appropriate plans for possible actions of the enemy.

In connection to the mobilizitation issue, Reznikov noted the neccesity to increase assistance to Ukraine with weapons and ammunition from international partners. In this regard, the head of the Ministry of Defense reminded about the next Ramstein meeting next week in Brussels and the meeting of the ministers of defense.

“They applaud us a lot for our two counteroffensive operations and want to support us,” Reznikov said.

According to him, the manufacturing of weapons and ammunition in Ukraine is also increasing.

Previously, the Russian invasion forces reported that the Russians began to transfer the mobilized soldiers to the occupied parts of the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions. On October 5, a report by Russian propagandist Roman Klemenyuk, who stated that the mobilized citizens had arrived in the Kherson region for training at the training ground, was released. According to him, they are engaged in fire training, throwing grenades, as well as mastering Russian weapons.

On October 6, there were published similar reports from Russian propagandists, showing those mobilized in the Zaporizhzhia region. They allegedly already have passed basic training near the Russian Federation, and undergo repeated training in Zaporizhzhia.
