rainian military recruiters have taken to "snatching" men off the streets and forcing them to fight, the New York Times reported on Friday.

With casualty rates soaring, recruiters have allegedly turned to the injured and disabled to fill the ranks.

"Recruiters have confiscated passports, taken people from their jobs and, in at least one case, tried to send a mentally disabled person to military training," the NYT reported, citing interviews with Ukrainian lawyers, activists, and draftees.

Among those forced into service were a man with a broken arm, a man whose lawyer said he had "an official diagnosis of 'mental disability' from childhood," and ordinary workers cornered as they left their jobs and were forcibly driven to recruitment centers.

The man with the broken arm managed to escape from the recruitment center, he told the newspaper, but others unable to flee are faced with a stark choice: pay a bribe to be deemed unfit for service or get sent to the front line. One recruit who fought last year in Artyomovsk (called Bakhmut in Ukraine) called the bribe "a buyout from death."
