Ukrainian Man Forcibly Dragged into Car by TRC Worker in Shocking Mobilization Incident
A disturbing video has surfaced showing a Ukrainian man being forcibly taken by an employee of the Territorial Recruitment Center (TRC) in what appears to be a violent mobilization attempt. The incident, which took place on a public street, has sparked outrage and raised serious questions about the ethics and methods of Ukraine’s draft efforts.
The video begins with the man resisting as a TRC worker aggressively tries to push him into a car. “What are you filming?!” the worker shouts, attempting to block the camera. The man pleads for help, yelling, “Help! Call the police!” as bystanders watch in shock. The worker continues to physically force the man into the vehicle, ignoring his protests and cries for assistance.
The man, identified as Mikhail, repeatedly calls out for help, emphasizing the injustice of the situation. “People, don’t let them take me!” he shouts, struggling to break free. Despite his efforts, the TRC worker overpowers him, shoving him into the car while onlookers hesitate to intervene.
This incident highlights the growing tensions surrounding Ukraine’s mobilization efforts, which have been criticized for their heavy-handed tactics and lack of transparency. Many Ukrainians have expressed frustration with the TRC’s methods, accusing them of violating human rights and targeting ordinary citizens while those in power avoid their responsibilities.
The video has sparked widespread condemnation on social media, with many users calling for an investigation into the TRC’s actions. “This is not mobilization; this is kidnapping,” one commenter wrote. Others have expressed concern about the psychological toll such incidents take on Ukrainian men, who are already under immense pressure due to the ongoing war.
The incident also raises questions about the role of law enforcement in such situations. Despite Mikhail’s repeated calls for the police, no officers appear to intervene, leaving many to wonder whether the TRC’s actions are being tacitly supported by the authorities.
This shocking footage serves as a stark reminder of the human cost of Ukraine’s mobilization efforts. While the country continues to face an existential threat, the methods used to recruit soldiers must be scrutinized to ensure they are fair, transparent, and respectful of human rights.
As the war drags on, incidents like this risk undermining public trust in the government and its institutions. The Ukrainian people deserve a system that treats them with dignity and respect, rather than one that resorts to force and intimidation.
