Ukrainian men with an official deferral from conscription may find themselves in a difficult situation if they are wanted for evading conscription. This became known from a statement by the portal 'Lawyers.UA'. Lawyers confirmed that such men may be detained during document verification.
Detention during document verification
According to information from lawyers, citizens with a deferral from conscription may end up on a wanted list due to refusal of military service. Lawyers noted that each case is considered individually - for example, individuals with disabilities, large families, and students may be granted deferral from military service.
Overall, in Ukraine, the conscription campaign involves men aged 18 to 60. However, there are groups of citizens who have certain privileges and can avoid conscription into the Armed Forces.
Thus, men with a deferral from conscription should be cautious and monitor any messages from military authorities to avoid potential problems during document verification.
