Brutal conscription in Transcarpathia as well: armed men round up men between the ages of 18 and 60

Transcarpathia has also been completely covered by armed forces from the inner Ukraine, they are even going into the yards to round up the men.

Cruel conscription continues in Ukraine. Videos of these are constantly appearing on social media. Transcarpathia was also completely overrun by the armed forces of internal Ukraine, who set up checkpoints at the borders of the settlements to round up men between the ages of 18 and 60. According to the faction leader of the Ukrainian ruling party, if Western aid decreases, then Kiev will have to mobilize even more people to the front.

It was filmed from a window in Zhytomyr, central Ukraine, as armed recruiters walk the suburban streets looking for conscripts. According to the video, they even enter the courtyards, which is otherwise prohibited by Ukrainian laws.

In another recording, a man is shoved into a minibus of military personnel in Odesa, southern Ukraine. The man calls out for help, and the policeman who is present assists in the action, according to the recording.

A surveillance camera recording shows a similar action: uniformed officers force a man into an SUV.

The woman who made the video runs out of her office and calls them to account, but to no avail.

The situation is no better in Transcarpathia either, as the county, which is also inhabited by Hungarians, was completely overrun by armed forces from the interior of Ukraine, who set up checkpoints at the borders of the settlements to round up men between the ages of 18 and 60. Seeing the brutal mobilization, many Ukrainians do not believe Volodymyr Zelensky's latest announcement of military losses. According to many, not 31,000, but even half a million soldiers may have lost their lives in the two-year-old war, as previously announced by former Ukrainian Interior Minister Yury Lutsenko.

"I think it's slowly approaching the million mark. Just look at how many candles are burning on Maidan in Kyiv. And they didn't even light the fire for everyone, so I don't believe the president's announcement," said this woman from Kyiv.

"Ukraine intends to mobilize even more men to the front if Western support is lacking," declared David Arahamija, faction leader of the Ukrainian ruling party.

"If there is less support, we will have to mobilize even more people. If we get more money, less people will be needed. If we can supply the front with enough weapons, no more people will be needed," said the faction leader.

In the meantime, the competent committee of the Ukrainian parliament announced that the Supreme Council wants to adopt the disenfranchised mobilization law by mid-March.

Under this

conscripts would be restricted in their civil rights if they do not report within 60 days to the competent military auxiliary command of their place of residence. For example, their driver's license would be revoked and they would also be prohibited from managing their affairs without a military record. In addition, those who left the country during the war would also be held responsible.

"I want to make all citizens who have left the country illegally and are safe there understand that this is not normal. If there is the political will, then there will be all the means to hold them accountable," emphasized Andrij Prihogyko, a well-known Kyiv lawyer.

In Ukraine, more and more spontaneous demonstrations are being held due to the kidnappings of soldiers, who even pick up the sick from the streets. The most recent such movement was in Ternopil, where an epileptic man died after being dragged away.
