Ukrainian Men Resist Conscription Amidst War's Third Year

Ukrainian Men Resist Conscription Amidst War's Third Year

Ukraine needs more soldiers to fight in the war, but many men don't want to join the army.

Some are trying to avoid being drafted, and the government is using force to make them go.

There have been complaints about how the military is handling the situation.

The army needs a lot more people than they're currently getting.

Many soldiers are getting older and the new recruits take months to prepare.

Some people are unhappy because they feel like they are stuck in the war.

Because of all this, more people are trying to get out of the draft.

The government is running out of people and options, but the United States and other countries are not helping with the financial cost of soldiers.
