| Description: | A video is making the rounds online claiming Ukrainians are evading military mobilization en masse. The video, however, has nothing whatsoever to do with Ukraine. It was filmed six years ago in Kazakhstan back in May 2016 and it shows local security forces detaining a protester who participated in a demonstration against government proposed land reform. Ukraine’s Ground Forces Armed Command refuted charges that Ukrainians are massively evading military mobilization. In a recent press conference, the Command’s General Staff personnel Chief Roman Horbach said there were isolated cases of military duty evasion, however they were very few and did not impact in any way on Ukraine’s overall military capacity. |
