Ukraine needs more soldiers – level 1

16-04-2024 15:00

Ukraine needs more soldiers. In some places, there will not be enough soldiers soon.

Ukraine’s parliament makes a new law. This law is about soldiers. All men from 18 to 60 years old must have papers with them. These papers say that they are in the army. The law gives extra money and things to soldiers. They get help to buy a house or car.

Soldiers who fight since the beginning of the war are not happy. Before the law, they can stop after three years of fighting. This is not true anymore. They cannot choose to stop fighting.

Difficult words: law (an official rule), army (soldiers), extra (more).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

What changes did the new law in Ukraine bring for soldiers and how has it affected those who have been fighting since the beginning of the war?
