The word "busification" should be eradicated, and videos showing conflicts between military personnel of territorial centers for recruitment and social support and citizens usually only cover information that plays into the hands of the enemy.

This statement was made in an interview with Ukrainian Witness by Yuriy Puiko, head of the Odesa Regional Territorial Center for Recruitment and Social Support.

"The term 'busification' is gaining popularity now, and we need to fight this issue and eradicate this word. In our videos that are posted on the Internet, not all the information is covered, but only the information that is favorable to the enemy. Each case is checked, and practice shows that the events are covered untruthfully. There is no beginning of the conflict and no end, only a process that is favorable to the enemy. The TCC servicemen act within the limits of their authority. There is, of course, the problem that 90% of our military returned from the front crippled or wounded, and they have a sense of injustice in their hearts when healthy young men, instead of coming to the MCC and undergoing a military hospital commission, start playing into the enemy's hands on purpose. A conflict arises and, accordingly, on instructions or on assignment, someone films it on video," said the head of the regional center.

According to him, law enforcement agencies are working on these cases. All cases of conflict, he said, are mostly refuted and no criminal cases are initiated against the military. He also noted that the number of conflicts has decreased. However, in August and September, there were several fights between TCC employees and women. In early September , the Odesa Regional Territorial Center for Recruitment and Social Support commented on a video showing a soldier trying to hit a woman. The CSC called the woman responsible for the conflict.

And in early August, an incident occurred on Pirogovska Street, during which soldiers fought with women. At that time, the CCC also stated that the conflict was provoked by women.
