Who lost the right to deferment from mobilization due to the new law: details

From May 18, 2024, a new law on mobilization No. 10449 entered into force in Ukraine, which provides for changes in the rules of deferment for some categories of conscripts.

The law stipulates that the right to deferment will be lost by students who obtain a second education, which is not higher than the first. For example, a graduated bachelor who is re-studying for a bachelor's degree will no longer be eligible for a deferral.

• Men who have a father-in-law or mother-in-law with the I or II disability group, but at the same time they have a son or daughter who is not conscripted.
