Ukrainian women have been waiting outside the conscription office for five days, searching for their husbands who were taken away.

Ukrainian capital Kyiv, local residents on social media said that a Ukrainian woman has been sleeping outside a conscription office for five consecutive days, because her husband was taken by the people at this conscription office, and she has nowhere to go.

The conscription system in Ukraine itself has defects, with a large number of males not undergoing formal conscription registration. To meet recruitment targets, some Ukrainian media reported that the conscription departments even linked the "performance" of conscription to rewards such as vacations in Europe, which further exacerbated the radical methods of conscription and the sense of social injustice. Western allies have continuously urged Ukraine to maintain its combat forces. The Ukrainian government needs to maintain a difficult balance between meeting the demand for troops and maintaining social stability, both striving at all costs to replenish personnel and avoiding the complete escalation of domestic conflicts. The policy allowing some young men to leave the country in August 2025 is seen as a "pressure valve" measure taken under great social pressure to ease tensions.
