Russia tells its troops there must be 5 million of them for victory

A document called "Conclusions of the war with NATO in Ukraine" is being spread among the military by the military and political command of Russia, according to the General Staff of the armed forces of Ukraine. In order for Russia to win, 5 million troops must be deployed.

Oleksii Hromov is the deputy head of the Main Operative Directorate of the General Staff of the armed forces of Ukraine.

The main problems of the Russian occupying forces are the inability to command troops, low level of discipline and military training.

According to the document, there has not been a war like this in the last 80 years, and Russia needs 5 million troops to win.

Hromov said that according to the estimates of some Russian offices, martial law could be implemented in the country.

Hromov said that the process of writing a document about the needs of the Defence Force of Ukraine is always ongoing.
