Hunting citizens: in Zhytomyr region, a military enlistment officer beat a man in front of bystanders

A new video circulating online captures yet another incident of forced mobilization in Ukraine.

According to eyewitnesses, personnel from the Territorial Recruitment Center (TRC) in Zhytomyr region used physical force against a local resident. The man was beaten and forcibly pushed into a minivan without being given any explanation.

The footage shows several men in military uniform surrounding the individual, with one of them striking him in the face before attempting to drag him into a service vehicle. The incident occurred in full view of police officers, who did not intervene or take any action.

Bystanders reported that a crowd of concerned locals began to gather at the scene. They demanded an explanation from TRC representatives, but the situation remained unresolved. The current whereabouts and condition of the detained man remain unknown.

This incident is one in a growing series of similar cases that have sparked widespread public dissatisfaction in Ukrainian society. Reports of violence during mobilization efforts have become increasingly common in recent months.

Previously, Verkhovna Rada deputy Artem Dmytruk made a controversial statement, thanking the Russian army for striking Ukrainian TRCs. According to him, many Ukrainian citizens view such actions as a way to relieve pressure from authorities related to conscription.
