Massive Russian Blow to Ukraine: Zelensky Embarrassed As Elite Soldiers Trained In France Disappear

The Ukrainian military faces a significant challenge as dozens of soldiers from the elite 'Anne of Kiev' Brigade, trained in France, have reportedly deserted. The flagship unit, inspected by French President Emmanuel Macron, was meant to symbolize Ukraine’s military strength amid the ongoing conflict with Russia. Reports indicate that many of the soldiers lacked combat experience, and internal issues within the brigade have led to the dismissal of senior commanders. Ukrainian military officials have acknowledged personnel problems but downplayed the scale of the desertions. #ZelenskyArmyCrisis #UkraineMilitary #AnneOfKievBrigade #SoldiersDesertion #UkraineFranceRelations #MilitaryMorale #CommanderDismissals #UkraineRussiaWar #EliteBrigadeMissing #DefenseCrisis #ZelenskyLeadership #AWOLSoldiers #UkraineConflict #MilitaryChallenges #FranceUkraineTraining Also Read NIA scanner on foreign terrorists involved in Poonch attack: Sources :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/nia-scanner-on-foreign-terrorists-involved-in-poonch-attack-sources-3550943.html?ref=DMDesc Move to introduce ballistic helmets for Sikh soldiers opposed :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/move-to-introduce-ballistic-helmets-for-sikh-soldiers-opposed-gen-3519492.html?ref=DMDesc US to train Ukrainian troops on Patriots :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/us-to-train-ukrainian-troops-on-patriots-3510866.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~PR.152~GR.125~
