Putin’s Scare in Kharkiv Grows: Zelensky Signs New Law Allowing Prisoners to Join Military
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has ratified a new law allowing certain prisoners to be paroled if they agree to enlist in the country's military.
This legislation, aimed at bolstering Ukraine's military ranks, comes in response to the significant challenges the nation faces in its conflict with Russia.
The details of the new law were published on the official website of the Ukrainian parliament, the Verkhovna Rada.
Initially submitted to the legislature in March, the bill is part of a broader effort by Ukraine to replenish its military forces.
The legislation enables Ukrainian inmates to voluntarily enlist on a contractual basis and serve as long as martial law is in effect.
The law specifically applies to convicts with three years or less remaining on their original prison sentences.
Ukrainian elections remain suspended under martial law, extended until February 2025, as the nation prioritizes defense and internal stability. President Zelensky has emphasized achieving a "just peace" before resuming democratic processes. Logistical challenges, including displaced citizens and safety concerns, further complicate the electoral landscape.

In one of the deadliest attacks in months, Russian forces launched a devastating assault on Ukraine using 120 drones and 90 missiles, marking a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict. The attack, which targeted key infrastructure across Ukrainian cities, is being described as the most intense bombardment in recent weeks. Ukrainian officials confirmed that various types of drones, including Iranian-made Shaheds, as well as cruise and ballistic missiles, were deployed in the strike. President Volodymyr Zelensky reported that Ukrainian defenses were able to shoot down 140 air targets, but the attack caused significant damage to civilian infrastructure and left dozens injured. In Mykolaiv, two people were killed and six others injured, including two children, when a drone hit the city. In Odesa, another strike caused widespread destruction, killing two and disrupting power and water supplies in the region.

In a devastating escalation of hostilities, a Russian S-400 missile struck a police building in Kharkiv, Ukraine, on Friday, resulting in the tragic death of at least one officer and injuring dozens more. The attack has drawn condemnation and heightened fears of increasing violence in the region. According to the Ukrainian Interior Ministry, the strike killed a 43-year-old police colonel and left 30 police officers, one first responder, and nine civilians wounded, with some injuries reported as critical.
As investigations continue, the specifics of the targeted facility remain undisclosed, but regional authorities confirm significant collateral damage, including impacts on nearby residential areas. This missile strike marks a notable instance of Russia's alleged use of surface-to-air missiles for ground attacks, raising serious questions about the safety of civilian infrastructure amidst ongoing military operations.
