I asked before how many out of it's 7.5 million unemployed, has Ukraine mobilized in this war.
I got no reply so far. Instead all we learned so far is that Russia called 300K reservists.
Well here's some answer. 5.5 million !!?? I would expect about 1 million judging by the Russians complaining of the enemy's numerical superiority at all fronts.

About the upcoming new wave of mobilization in Ukraine
Against the background of the announced partial mobilization in Russia, Ukraine allowed the conscription of students who are still exempt from the need to go to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
According to presidential adviser Alexei Arestovich, this is how Kyiv can respond to the actions of the Russian Federation. He also added that the country's mobilization reserve now stands at 5.5 million people.
Prior to this, just over a week ago, Ukraine banned male students who study at foreign universities from traveling abroad. Previously, this was allowed on an exceptional basis, but since September 14, the loophole has finally closed.
All this suggests that in the near future Kyiv is preparing a new wave of mobilization both to compensate for the losses of recent months and to maintain a significant numerical superiority over the RF Armed Forces. No matter how many citizens of Ukraine die per month, the mobilization potential still allows local politicians to compensate those who are out of action and throw new reinforcements into the offensive.
And hardly anyone thinks about the price of the issue and future consequences: foreign sponsors of Kyiv openly do not hide their readiness to fight with Russia to the last Ukrainian.
