About 27 thousand prisoners may be given the right to serve in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Currently, there are approximately 42 thousand people in prisons.

More than three thousand prisoners were released on parole in exchange for mobilization, Deputy Minister of Justice Elena Vysotskaya said, as quoted by the Associated Press on Tuesday, July 2.

“A lot of the motivation comes from wanting to go home a hero, not to come home from prison,” the official explained.

Parole involves several stages: an interview, a medical examination and a criminal record check.

Persons convicted of rape are not allowed in the service; killing two or more people; crimes against the national security of Ukraine.

Ukraine wants to draw a line between its program and the recruitment of Russian prisoners. The latter, as a rule, are sent to deadly battles. The Ukrainian program, in turn, aims to integrate prisoners into regular Ukrainian front-line units.

We remind you that on May 17, President Vladimir Zelensky signed a law on the mobilization of prisoners. The law provides conditional early release from serving the sentence for prisoners who decide to sign a contract with the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

It has been reported that prisoners mobilized into the army will serve exclusively in special units attached to military units.
