Military Refusals

Military refusals refer to instances where individuals, often soldiers or military personnel, decline to perform military duties or participate in armed conflict, typically due to personal, moral, or ethical objections. This can stem from beliefs against violence, political reasons, or concerns about the legality or morality of a conflict. Often, such refusals can lead to legal consequences or disciplinary actions, depending on the military's policies. In some cases, individuals may seek conscientious objector status, which can allow them to fulfill non-combat roles or be exempted from service altogether based on their beliefs.
