People walk by the recruitment poster for the Ukrainian armed forces in the center of Zaporizhzhia. Since the start of the war, thousands of Ukrainian men have illegally crossed the Ukrainian border to dodge conscription, despite a nationwide ban prohibiting men between the ages of 18 and 60 from leaving. Attempts to flee the country are expected to increase after Ukraine’s recent adoption of new sweeping mobilization measures, which allow the military to call up more soldiers and impose stricter penalties for draft evasion.
