The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine denied the information that the mobilized, who did not undergo military training, are immediately sent to the front. Also, the ministry claims that they do not issue and are not going to issue subpoenas through Diya. This was stated by Deputy Minister of Defense Hanna Malyar.
She also added that women are not mobilized in Ukraine without their consent, even doctors.
Malyar called the relevant statements "Kremlin propaganda".
- Danilov talked about Putin's "B" plan in Ukraine, the new offensive, "taking Bakhmut" and subpoenas
- Military registration and mobilization. The mayor of Brovary and the entire executive committee were served summonses
- Mobilization in Ukraine continues. Why are summonses distributed en masse to men and how the authorities explain it
"Kremlin propaganda continues to spread fakes and myths, use manipulation of facts to influence Ukrainian society. In particular, Kremlin propagandists work on the topic of discrediting mobilization," Malyar said.
In particular, according to her, information is constantly spreading that subpoenas will allegedly be issued through the Diya application.
"Currently, summonses are not issued through Diya. And this issue is not being worked out," Malyar emphasized.
She also mentioned "another Russian narrative" - the message that those mobilized without training are immediately sent to the front, in particular to Bakhmut.
"Actually, those mobilized who did not complete military service are sent to training centers," Malyar noted and added that due to the war, the training of privates and sergeants takes place in shorter terms, "but without reducing the quality of training."
Also, the deputy minister of defense emphasized that the mobilized are sent to different directions, not only to the East.
"There are many rear military units in different regions of Ukraine, whose task is to bring our Victory closer. The spectrum is wide - from educational institutions and units, to bases, warehouses and arsenals, and here you can add repair units, communication units and cyber defense units," said Malyar - And there is also mobilization for such positions."
She also called on those mobilized to report cases when they are sent to the front line, to the Ministry of Defense's hotline, without training and skills in handling weapons.
