Targeting Children for Military Draft

Current Situation and Concerns

• The summer has begun, and there is an increased effort to draft teenagers into the military before they enroll in universities.

• A personal account describes a bus stop where passengers were subjected to ticket checks, which turned out to be a ruse for military recruitment.

• Authorities are detaining young men of conscription age from buses and forcibly placing them into military transport vehicles.

Legal and Ethical Implications

• The current actions against children are deemed illegal, especially during the examination period (ЕГЭ) when students are preparing for university admissions.

• There is psychological pressure on these young men, including physical abuse and restrictions on contacting their parents, raising serious ethical concerns about the treatment of conscripts.
