A tip I found quite helpful, and you may too when you encounter this situation. You're population replenishes slower and slower as you get farther from your max pop. What I mean is, and this is just a quick example, If if your max pop is 10k and your current pop is 5k, you may get back 500 pop per turn. But if your current pop is at 1k, you may only regain 50 pop per turn. With that in mind, A very effective way to speed up your population replenishment if your current pop has been decimated is to raise your tax rate to 70%. This will lower your max pop and cause civilians to come back at a faster rate, also it decreases cash lost per turn. When you see your civilians per turn start slowing down, lower tax rate to 60%, repeat this process until you are back to your desired tax rate
