Ukrainian Males between the ages of 18 to 60 years old has been banned from leaving the country following invasion from Russia.
This was reported by the Ukraine’s State Border Guard Service (DPSA).
The ban, according to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy who imposed it on Thursday morning after Russia attacked Ukraine, will be in place for the duration of martial law.
“The State Border Guard Service of Ukraine reports that due to the imposition of martial law in Ukraine, a certain category of citizens is temporarily restricted from leaving Ukraine,” the country’s interior ministry also announced at midnight via Telegram.
“In particular, male citizens of Ukraine aged 18 to 60 are prohibited from leaving Ukraine. This rule will apply for the period of martial law. We ask citizens to take this information into account,” he said.
“Anyone caught violating martial law could end up facing military tribunals.”
The DPSA said the ban on males leaving the country is to guarantee Ukraine’s defence and organisation of timely mobilization.
Ukrainian President also urged any Ukrainian citizen with a passport willing to fight to come forward, and promised weapons for anyone.
