In Ukraine, there is a directive that allows men aged 50-60 to be mobilised only under a separate mobilisation order.
This was stated by a member of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security, Defence and Intelligence, People`s Deputy from the Servant of the People Party Fedir Venislavsky in a commentary to Liga.net, Censor.NET reports.
Venislavskyi confirmed that the directive of the Land Forces Command, which was previously reported by People`s Deputy Oleksii Honcharenko, does contain a provision that restricts the mobilisation of men aged 50-60.
The People`s Deputy noted that this approach is the general position of the military leadership.
According to Venislavsky, only those with hard-to-fill military occupation are drafted after the age of 50. A separate mobilisation order is issued by the General Staff of the Armed Forces.
