Forced? Their fighting for their survival for fuck's sake.
Are you contesting that it's "Forced"? It matches the textbook definition of the word
They are forced. They fight against the Ukrainian Army for their survival, because being drafted means they will probably die at this point. If they could keep avoiding the army, they would probably survive until this madness ends.
