In Odesa, another scandal broke out near the collection point of the regional CCC and JV on Zankovetska Street. The military enlistment office responded to the incident.

This is stated in the message of the Odesa Regional Territorial Center for Recruitment and Social Support.

According to the TCC, on March 26, a group of unidentified persons prevented the departure of a bus transporting persons liable for military service near the assembly point.

According to preliminary data, about 10 people blocked the traffic. One of the persons liable for military service, in prior conspiracy with civilians, tried to leave the bus through the open door. In response, a group of people intervened in the situation, preventing representatives of the TCC and the JV from performing their duties.

The military registration and enlistment office emphasized that compliance with military registration and mobilization measures is the duty of every citizen. They claim that interference in the work of officials is a violation of the law and may have legal consequences.

At the same time, information about the possible use of force by representatives of the TCC and the JV appeared on the web. However, according to a preliminary analysis of the video footage, there was no evidence of physical force by the military.

Local telegram channels distributed a fragment of the video and reported that a group of people helped the man escape from the bus while he was on his way to the training unit.

Earlier, the Odesa Regional TCC explained why the man was put on the bus.

Recently, in Odesa, a civilian beat an employee of the Prymorskyi district CCC and JV during a document check. Later, a video was posted online in which the man told how the verbal conflict escalated into a fight and what happened next.

Earlier, Odesa journalist and writer Victoria Koltunova claimed that servicemen from one of the territorial centers for recruitment and social support grabbed her son on the street of Odesa, took him out of town, and severely beat him, demanding money.
