In Kyiv, the police have started detaining more draft dodgers.

According to the Main Directorate of the National Police of Ukraine in Kyiv, in less than a month, the police brought in 903 individuals to the territorial recruitment center.

Prior to this, 1,416 individuals were detained since the beginning of the year.

Currently, there are 5,833 individuals wanted by the police, compared to 5,387 less than a month ago. This means that nearly half a thousand more men have been added to the wanted list.

Earlier, the spokesperson for the Poltava Territorial Recruitment Center, Roman Istomin, reported that the police in the Poltava region are searching for 30,000 draft dodgers. These are individuals who have ignored their conscription notices.

In the Ivano-Frankivsk region, the police are searching for nearly 40,000 individuals who have evaded conscription. The Deputy Head of the Regional Territorial Recruitment Center stated that the police have the right to detain all these citizens and forcibly bring them to the territorial recruitment center under administrative detention. Therefore, he urged people not to be surprised when there is forced mobilization of citizens on the streets after document checks.
