Ukraine ends military deferments for men over 25 in school due to war-driven manpower shortages.
Ukraine is moving to end military deferments for men aged 25 and older in higher education, citing national security and manpower shortages amid ongoing war.
The number of male students over 25 has surged from 30,000 before 2022 to about 250,000 by September 2025, driven by mobilization and the war.
Lawmakers argue the change is necessary to ensure broader military contribution, while authorities are cracking down on fake enrollments, having expelled nearly 50,000 students and opened eight criminal cases against institutions suspected of facilitating draft evasion.
