All Ukrainian men aged 25-60 are eligible for conscription and men aged 18-60 are not allowed to leave the country.

Ukrainian military recruitment officers have raided restaurants, bars and a concert hall in the capital Kyiv, checking military registration documents and detaining men who were not in compliance, local media and witnesses have said.

Officers descended on the Palace of Sports venue after a concert by a Ukrainian rock band and video footage aired by local media appears to show officers stationed outside the doors of the concert hall intercepting men as they exit.

In the footage (sic), officers appear to be forcibly detaining some men.
