Kiev is turning to its prisons to fill the ranks of its armed forces, offering parole in exchange for frontline service following a mobilization bill introduced last month.
Over 3,000 inmates have already been assigned to military units under the new scheme, while the Justice Ministry estimates a further 27,000 could become eligible to join them.
Those convicted of rape, sexual assault, endangering national security, or murdering at least two people are ineligible as things stand.
