The potential mobilization resource among prisoners in Ukraine is 15-20 thousand people.

This was stated by the head of the Servant of the People parliamentary faction, Davyd Arakhamia, during a briefing in the parliament, Ukrainian Pravda reports.

As you know, today, May 8, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine adopted a draft law on the mobilization of convicts.

«15-20 thousand is a total resource (prisoners, note) that may fall under the relevant criteria. We do not know how many of them will sign the contract, because it will be by mutual agreement. We estimate that it will be approximately several thousand people,» he said.

In addition, he noted that prisoners will be able to be mobilized after the court's decision on conditional early release from punishment.

What about the mobilization in Mykolaiv Oblast?

As you know, during the full-scale war, 33,000 residents of the Mykolaiv Oblast were mobilized to the ranks of the Armed Forces.

The head of the Mykolaiv regional military administration, Vitalii Kim, expressed his belief in the need for mobilization after personal communication with the military, who are currently defending the state.

The head of the RMA added that money should not be the main motivation for protecting the state.

In response to this, Oksana Kaliuzhna, a member of the Mykolaiv Regional Council, reacted negatively to the regional leadership's statement regarding mobilization, comparing the issuing of summonses to evasioners to catching dogs.
