The bitter choice of Ukrainian men; Death in the mountains or war
The fatal escape of Ukrainian men from the mobilization of forces shows that the severe lack of manpower, widespread casualties, violence in recruitment and the prospect of the mobilization of millions have brought Ukraine into a humanitarian and social crisis.
According to RCO News Agency, Ukrainians risk their lives to escape the mobilization of forces. According to CNN, Ukrainian men take deadly border crossings to escape from Basij. While Kyiv is struggling with a chronic shortage of human resources. This report is based on interviews with fugitives who fled to Romania.
The American media wrote that since the escalation of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine in February 2022, more than 30,000 people have fled to Romania alone, adding that more than 25,000 people have been arrested by Ukrainian border guards.
The CNN reporter added: “Many more people are fleeing to Moldova, Hungary, Belarus and other countries.”
During its conflict with Moscow, Kiev has been facing a chronic shortage of manpower due to heavy casualties in the field, widespread desertion and desertion. The latest published official data shows that since 2022, nearly 290,000 cases of resignations have been registered in Ukraine.
Ukraine has banned almost all adult men from leaving the country and lowered the age of conscription from 27 to 25.
Nearly 100,000 young men have reportedly fled the country since August, when the Ukrainian government issued a decree allowing men aged 18 to 22 to cross the border.
One of the men who contacted CNN said he lost all his toes to frostbite while trying to cross into Romania. He said another deserter who was with him died of frostbite in a snowstorm.
A Romanian man in charge of relief missions on the border told CNN, referring to the Ukrainians he had seen, “they would rather die in the mountains fleeing than die fighting.”
The recruiting campaign in Kyiv has become increasingly violent; So much so that there are hundreds of documented cases in which recruiters assaulted potential recruits, chased them through the streets, and threatened passers-by who intervened.
According to Rasha Today, earlier this week, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova warned that Ukrainian authorities plan to conscript about 2 million new soldiers by early 2026. He added that the officials of the mobilization of the forces have been ordered to “increase the pressure to the maximum extent.”
