Ukraine is outgunned and outmanned by the Russianinvaders, who are inching closer.

Incoming American ammunition is expected to help,but how the Ukrainian government is addressing its need to recruit is controversial.

War-weary troops have told the BBC the military needs to "rethink" how it recruits.

A new mobilisation bill passed earlier in April wascriticised for not including a limit on time served. Aclause aimed at demobilising soldiers after three yearswas dropped at the army's request.

Despite Kyiv lowering the conscription age to findreplacements, it's not just a numbers game.
