Conscription Squads Send Ukrainian Men Into Hiding

It’s been more than two years since Ukraine was invaded by Russian forces and now Moscow’s offensive is getting ever more intense.

With many of its soldiers dead, injured or exhausted, the Ukrainian government has stepped up its efforts to mobilise more men.

A new law, introduced in May, requires every man aged between 25 and 60 to log their details on an electronic database so they can be called up.

Conscription officers are on the hunt for those avoiding the register, pushing more men who do not want to serve into hiding.
