Original Note:
No children or 70yr olds are conscripted in the Ukrainian Armed Forces. A recent law dropped the lower age limit from 27 to 25 yr olds, while the upper limit is 60yrs old. Russia increased its upper age limit from 65 to 70yrs old, not Ukraine. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12313183/Russia-mobilises-70-year-olds-readies-100-000-men-Ukraine-war.html https://visitukraine.today/blog/1974/conscription-age-cut-to-25-in-ukraine-what-will-change-and-how-will-it-affect-mobilisation
