Women to be recruited to Ukrainian army

Not only men, but also women will be recruited during the fourth wave of mobilization which will start soon in Ukraine, if necessary, Major-General Vladimir Talalai, the first deputy head of the Chief Department of Defense and Mobilization Planning of the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, stated at a press conference.

“According to the law, draft-age men of 25-60 years and women of 25-50 years could be recruited,” TASS cites him.

However, Talalai stressed that women would only be recruited if it was deemed necessary.
