There are dozens of videos of Ukrainian draft gangs literally grabbing old men off the streets and in grocery stored (even delivering pizza) and throwing them into trucks for “enlistment.”
This doesn’t end well.
Yes they’re getting desperate for meat. These army press gangs are hitting gas station lines and even air raid shelters after the sirens send people underground. I have a Ukrainian friend whose brother was super anti Russian in the buildup to war and now his life is a bleak exercise in actively dodging SBU authorities by moving village to village in a region that he has relatives in. It costs about 10k to buy the precious “medically unfit” papers-money he doesn’t have.
Z just signed a decree lowering conscription age to 16
There are some heartbreaking vids filmed by brave outraged onlookers ( filming is illegal)…one where parents try to protect their boys age 16 and 17 from being press-ganged. One uniformed slob coldly snaps their pictures saying ‘ we will remember these children’
Another a screaming mother tries to hold her boy..video ends when another uniformed slob punches her
For those who say this is ‘ Russian propaganda” it is now happening all over Ukraine, a major focus is slobs in uniform chasing down and grabbing males in minority ethnic provinces. Like Transcarpathian hungarian speakers.
I wonder how Lindsey Graham sleeps knowing the “ last Ukrainian” may be a 16 yr old boy.
