According to Newsweek, North Korean residents are attempting to avoid forced conscription by bribing doctors.

Families are paying amounts exceeding 100 times the average monthly wage to obtain forged medical certificates confirming severe illnesses, such as tuberculosis.

Such measures allow men to avoid being sent to fight in the war in Ukraine on behalf of Russia.
