For reference
Before Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine, the lower limit of the conscription age was 27. However, last year, the Rada supported a bill to reduce the draft age to 25, and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy signed it into law. This allowed men aged 25 and 26 to be mobilized.
Currently, the upper age limit for mobilization is 60.
Recall
The Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security, Defense, and Intelligence has drafted a bill that would correct a legislative conflictwhereby men aged 18 to 25 could be mobilized into the Armed Forces if they have completed military service, graduated from a military department, or were recognized as having limited fitness in peacetime.
