A person with an amputated leg was never considered fit for military service. According to the Ukrainian Defense Ministry, a person with a diagnosis of "unilateral amputated stump of the lower limb above the level of the upper third of the lower leg" is unfit for military service.

The press service of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine denied this information, saying that the fake was designed to "negatively affect the situation."
