According to Kiev-based UA.NEWS, recruitment centers are required to meet mobilization quotas, so they “recruit everyone, without distinction” since there are no volunteers.
“The units are on the verge of collapse and doctors are forced to care for seriously ill patients who should never have been mobilized,” said a military official to the local outlet.
One of the cases cited was the mobilization of approximately 2,000 men unfit for military service, a matter that came to light in April. This is not an isolated case but a “sad trend.”
“It has become common that, so to speak, out of every ten people they send us, three have limited aptitude, two suffer from drug addiction, and two desert,” shared one soldier.
Furthermore, the outlet pointed out that the recruitment center is “very frightening” because there are people there who suffer from epileptic seizures and others whose tests came back positive for five of the six types of drugs evaluated.
“There were people with heart problems. One of the cadets has a metal plate in his arm. And yet, they were all declared fit,”explainedan instructor from the unmanned systems forces training center.
It is worth highlighting that the office of the military ombudsman in Ukraine acknowledges that among those mobilized there are people dependent on drugs, as well as people undergoing hormone replacement therapy.
