I can only find reports of Russian soldiers kidnapping people in Ukraine, reports of things that seem clearly like conscription and not kidnapping, and things from sources that aren’t credible.
Do you have a credible source that shows that this is a real phenomenon? I can’t find one
A BBC article is the first result from just searching it. Its a widely talked about fact and if you can’t find “anything” you need to actually read the search results.
First result? I couldn’t get it as a result at all. I get a bunch of quora threads and articles from really low profile news outlets.
Yeah that is troubling, even if the cause of it is corruption as the second article implies. I understand the draft given the circumstances of the invasion, but sneaking people into vans, beating them, and asking questions later isn’t justified at all. Becoming a brutal authoritarian in order to repel the invading forces of another is kinda futile.

Consider not using one of the major search engines. Basically all of them filter results.
