Women make up 15 percent of Ukraine's army. Ukraine’s foreign ministry expressed their gratitude on Twitter: “According to the latest survey, more than 15 percent of the regular Ukrainian army are women.
"The Number of those who defend Ukraine now in a different way is impossible to count. Thank you!”
