The unnamed U.S. lawmakers have reportedly cited America's experience in the Vietnam War, when men aged 18-26 were drafted to fight, said Presidential Office advisor Serhii Leshchenko.

    A BBC article is the first result from just searching it. Its a widely talked about fact and if you can’t find “anything” you need to actually read the search results.

    There was one incident where they abducted a 14 year old orphan. https://kyivindependent.com/media-odesa-recruitment-center-investigating-report-of-14-year-old-kidnapped-by-uniformed-men/

      First result? I couldn’t get it as a result at all. I get a bunch of quora threads and articles from really low profile news outlets.

      Yeah that is troubling, even if the cause of it is corruption as the second article implies. I understand the draft given the circumstances of the invasion, but sneaking people into vans, beating them, and asking questions later isn’t justified at all. Becoming a brutal authoritarian in order to repel the invading forces of another is kinda futile.

        Consider not using one of the major search engines. Basically all of them filter results.
