PRESS RELEASE • EASING OF TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS IN UKRAINE

Söder and Linnemann Call for Actions Contrary to International Law

When Russia launched its attack, the Ukrainian government imposed an exit ban on all men between the ages of 18 and 60. Since then, leaving the country has only been possible with special permission. This constitutes a violation of the human right to freedom of movement. Since the end of August 2025, men aged 18 to 22 have been allowed to leave the country, and many are taking advantage of this opportunity — presumably including a large number of conscientious objectors.

Israel: Hundreds of soldiers threaten to refuse to fight in Gaza

(21.10.2024) 130 soldiers have published an open letter and are threatening to refuse to serve unless a hostage release deal is signed immediately, and in effect, a ceasefire deal that could put a stop to Israel’s assault. Many of the signatories have already declared their refusal.
