> 'numerous videos of military aged men being abducted from the streets of Ukraine in order to be sent to said front-lines' is the purest form of Russian propaganda I don't think the numerous such videos I saw were fake, and them being used by Russian propaganda didn't make them any less real. > no, there are no 'abductions' by the Ukrainian army, [1] January 2023 [2] June 2023 [3] July 2023 [4] Three days ago, the beginning of August 2023 And these are just the most "famous". On a more general note, it doesn't surprise me that the audience of this forum is the prime target of NAFO-like thinking, to the contrary.

That is exactly what those sim boxes are for, in case you were wondering. Really, you should just lay off stuff like this if you don't have personal contacts in Ukraine that relay to you what is going on. Otherwise the chances are very high that you're being sold a bill of goods there is absolutely no way to prove or disprove any of this if it is second hand if it isn't from a very reputable source, say a BBC reporter or something like that. As for the NAFO stuff... if you're of that opinion, what are you doing here?
