Ukraine, whose military losses have increased in the years-long war with Russia, continues forced conscription. Most recently, the moment two soldiers tried to forcibly take a man from the street for military service was captured on a mobile phone camera. It was not learned what happened to the man, who resisted not going to the military for a long time. Similar images have come one after another from the country.

In Ukraine, which continues its war with Russia, practices related to compulsory military recruitment are getting increasingly harsher due to rising military losses. Recently, cell phone footage reflected on social media showed two soldiers trying to forcibly take a person into the military in the middle of the street, with the individual resisting the officials for a long time.

FORCED MILITARY CONSCRIPTIONS ARE ON THE RISE

While the fate of the person in the footage has not yet been learned, new videos containing similar scenes continue to come from the country. The strict mobilization measures carried out to close the personnel shortage at the front are increasing both debates over abuse of authority and unrest in society.
