Ukrainian orphan Bogdan Ermokhin turns 18 on November 19 and has already received a notice that he is required to join the Russian army in December, his lawyer has warned.
Ukrainian Bogdan Ermokhin faces conscription when he turns 18 this monthA Ukrainian orphan who was abducted from Mariupol and allegedly forced to take Russian citizenship is facing conscription into Vladimir Putin's army as the Kremlin hunts for new recruits.
More than 19,500 children have been deported into Russia since Moscow invaded Ukraine in February last year - and only 386 have successfully returned home to Ukraine, Kyiv claims. Bogdan was allegedly forced to take Russian citizenship and his lawyer claims he was displayed as Russian propaganda. She claimed that Bogdan is not at risk of being conscripted because he is studying in college and can defer his enlistment.
