Combat training programs provided by Ukraine’s allies are hitting major milestones even as global attention shifts to the war in the Middle East.
Battle cries pierce the smoke and rat-a-tat-tat of gunfire as Ukrainian soldiers fight through and take enemy trenches and dugouts that hide gruesome, bloody remains. “Grenade!” one soldier screams in Ukrainian. Another yells: “Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go, let’s go!' This time, no lives or limbs were lost.
As well as basic training with weapons, battlefield first aid and other skills, instructors are also imparting specialized military know-how, including mine clearance, launching waterborne attacks aboard small boats, equipment repair, officer training and even help for Ukrainian military chaplains. With their return to Ukraine just days away, the grimness of the future that awaits the trainees at the French base was perceptible in the men's determined, unsmiling looks.
