The General Staff has shortened the training period for those with limited fitness for service: the workload has also been reduced

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine announced a reduction in the duration of basic military training for citizens deemed limited fit for service. Now, the training will last not 45 days, but a month.

In addition, the physical load during the training has been reduced. This decision was made based on the recommendation of the Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights, according to the General Staff’s report.

The changes apply to citizens who have health issues and will serve not on the front line, but in rear positions — in territorial recruitment centers, support units, security, and other similar structures.

The decision is intended to take into account the physical capabilities of such conscripts and provide a more adapted training program.
