Recall
On July 5, 2025, in the village of Orlivka, Rivne region, during a document check by a group of TCC servicemen, a conflict arose, as a result of which a senior soldier was hit on the head. The police opened criminal proceedings on the fact of injuries inflicted on the serviceman.
Police officers can independently notify conscripts, but they do not have the right to carry out mobilization without the TCC.
