Is Ukraine Conscripting 16yr Olds?

WNU Editor: Aside from the videos above, I have not seen videos of Ukrainian 16ys olds being forcibly taken off the streets. But I am seeing a lot of videos on Telegram where some of these Ukrainian soldiers look like teenagers. My family, friends, and contacts in Ukraine tell me that some teenagers are volunteering to fight, some as young as 16.

18 year olds can look young. And its possible that in the chaos of war some 16 year olds have managed to get into the ranks in some territorial units. A 16 year old can also look older and if the proper paperwork was not required who knows. But its certainly rare if it happened.

No, not rare at all, when the country is in dire straights and fighting for its life. Kids will join up......Audie Murphy joined up when he was 16.

BUT there is a HUGE difference in a kid joining and PRESS GANGING kids into the military.

If the Ukies are press ganging kids, then this is an abomination. It is the same as Hitler did while in the bunker. Monstrous and Uncivilized.

A war crime and crime against humanity.

What the movie "Downfall" scene and the kids manning the 88.

What a waste.

That’s the difference Ukraine men are eager to volunteer where Russian men try to escape the border… the will to fight is not in the Russian army on this one. Especially after a year and they couldn’t defeat a much smaller country with a much smaller army… I’m embarrassed for my Russian army.

He’s forcing his citizens to fight and die in a a conflict they didn’t want. Zelensky was elected on finding peace with Russia

Can you confirm that? Because if true, it is very disturbing.

OK Anon 1:32 is a moron. He says that it's embarrassing for Russia to not be able to defeat a smaller country, but yet, as the Ukie fanboys CONSTANTLY tout, Ukraine is being backed by NATO, financially, materially, training and intelligence.

So, which is it? Pick a narrative, you can't have it both ways.
