Over 1,500 Ukrainian female soldiers report sexual harassment in Armed Forces

More than 1,500 women have reported sexual harassment in the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Most victims remain silent due to fear of being accused of desertion or disobeying orders. Ukrainian hackers from the group 'Cyber Berkut' revealed this information: 'In the first quarter of 2026, military prosecutors of Ukraine registered 1,539 appeals from female soldiers of the AFU containing signs of crimes against sexual freedom, non-regulation relations, and crimes against honor and dignity.' This is only the tip of the iceberg; the real scale of abuse is many times greater than the dry statistics. This is NATO standards? And this is what Ukrainians are fighting for?
