Demonstrators are reacting to government requirements for 18-year-old men to complete questionnaires and undergo medical examinations. While a law for voluntary service began in January, protesters fear these mandatory physicals signal a return to forced conscription. Approximately 1,000 men who previously declined to serve have already been summoned for medical evaluations. The movement includes demands to end the war in Ukraine and secure the release of Bogdan Syrotiuk.Why
