War and mobilization: Ukrainian women cannot find men – The New York Times

The Volyn Territorial Recruitment Center accused Russian special services of allegedly organizing the protest as their best excuse.
The corresponding statement was published on the center’s Facebook page.
The recruitment center confirmed the detention of three young men but claimed that “the conflict was supported and directed by Russian special services through relevant information systems.”
The agency also claimed that the story was spread online by “hundreds of bots.”
“The situation was completely provoked to discredit the current government and oppose mobilization measures, hindering the lawful activities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine,” the recruitment center’s statement said.
They promise “legal consequences for those who incited citizens to unlawful actions and those who actively participated in this.”
“Yesterday, you devalued the true essence of the slogan ‘Glory to the Heroes!’ by shouting and applauding the ‘draft dodger’ who did nothing for Ukraine’s victory,” the territorial recruitment center wrote.
Later, it became known that the Kovel Territorial Recruitment Center released all three young men detained at the checkpoint. As seen in the video, they were met with applause.
