Then, on Tuesday, Zelenskyy signed some additional parts to an old mobilization law tightening the legal requirements for draft-age Ukrainian men to register their details, and lowering the minimum age for call-up from 27 to 25.

I’m shocked that he lowered it to 25 instead of 0. Doesn’t he want to win the war?

I am legitimately surprised it isn't in the 16-18 range at this point yet. Though I would not be surprised if some teenagers have been conscripted anyway.

This is who they were sending to the front in April... TWO YEARS AGO

Those boys in the back sure don't look 27 to me.
