Amid escalating tensions with Russia, the Ukrainian government, led by spokesperson Dmitry Lazutkin, calls for national unity and sacrifices to defend the nation. Following setbacks in the conflict, Ukraine initiates significant conscription reforms, including lowering the draft age and imposing harsh penalties on draft dodgers. President Zelensky's amendments reflect the severity of the situation, with casualties reaching alarming numbers. The decision to suspend consular services for military-eligible citizens abroad underscores the government's resolve. Despite challenges, Ukrainian officials remain committed to defending sovereignty, urging nationwide mobilisation against the looming threat.
