A gloomy mood hangs over Ukraine’s soldiers nearly two years after Russia invaded their country.
Despite a disappointing counteroffensive this summer and signs of wavering financial support from allies, Ukrainian soldiers say they remain fiercely determined to win.

Discontent among Ukrainian soldiers — once extremely rare and expressed only in private — is now more common and out in the open.
