Massive draft evasion scheme uncovered in Dnipro

The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) and the State Bureau of Investigation (DBR) have dismantled a large-scale draft evasion scheme in Dnipro involving military officials, healthcare workers, and civilians.

The suspects fabricated medical records of severe medical conditions to pronounce draft-dodgers unfit for service. The records were later rubber- by their accomplices in Territorial Recruitment Centers (TCCs), which granted the ‘clients’ medical exemptions and deferments.

The cost for these illicit “services” started at $12,000 per person.

The criminal ring included recruitment center employees, military personnel, and doctors who produce and sell fake exemptions. Their civilian accomplices acted as intermediaries who looked for clients and handled money matters.

Those involved in the scheme now face up to 10 years in prison with confiscation of property.

To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).

In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.

Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.

Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
