Has anyone seen the story about the 800 000 ghost soldiers in Ukraine? Ghost Soldiers are soldiers on paper, but not IRL. It happens in corrupt countries, (as it did in Afghanistan) whereby those in charge of say, payments to the troops claim higher numbers and pocket the rest. OR when demanding X supplies from the West for Y number of troops

Of note, The Military Balance 2022 by the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) states that the AFU Pre War composition was:

• 196,000 Active Duty
• 900,000 Reserve
• 102,000 Paramilitary

Let’s round that off and say 1.2 million, so the 300,000 conscripts would suggest 1.5 million total. However, AFU Commander in Chief Valerii Zaluzhnyi in his interview with The Economist in December said total AFU strength was 700,000 personnel.

Such thus begs the question of where almost 800,000 unaccounted for AFU personnel are?

Not all of the missing 800 000 are dead, this much I can tell you.
