It’s a civil war of sorts between the man-catchers and the population at large.
An important part of our reporting on the Ukraine war here on TGP is tracking MSM vehicles finally reporting on themes and developments we have been covering here for months.
In the case of absolute tragedy that is the forced mobilization in Ukraine, it’s a bit sad to see that even in our conservative informational sphere, a lot of people are still not aware of the endless cat-and-mouse game in which the conscription officers attempt to forcibly send civilians to the meat-grinder – it’s called ‘busification’.

🤡🇺🇦The Everyday Life of Ukrainian “Democracy”
In the video men in uniform, apparently employees of the Territorial Center for Recruitment and Social Support, kicked a guy with their feet and then dragged him into a van.#TCC pic.twitter.com/vVqay6GtCU

In Kovel, a team of well-trained draft officers forcibly pulls a man from his car and bundles him into their van. The footage is indistinguishable from a kidnapping scene in a crime thriller.
This is what conscription in Ukraine looks like today. pic.twitter.com/0rRzHeiwU7— Marta Havryshko (@HavryshkoMarta) July 14, 2026

What people also don’t see is the desperate effort by women trying to save their loved ones.
In Lyov, TCC officers are now attacking not only men.
A young woman unsuccessfully tried to stop a ‘busification’, and an officer pinned her against a wall and grabbed her by the throat.
Apparently, even the recent protests over forced mobilisation did not deter Lyov’s draft… https://t.co/PlT8rnIkXw pic.twitter.com/wxtrpzFtpN

And people taken to the limit are led to desperate measures.
In Ternopil, Ukraine, a conscript shot himself in a draft office.
He walked in accompanied by military personnel, left his bag in the hallway, and entered the bathroom with a backpack.
Seconds later, a gunshot rang out.
Draft officers barely reacted. pic.twitter.com/iuZwANUeHv

Even the ultra-liberal BBC felt compelled to report on this subject with their “‘Everyone’s afraid to die’: Struggle to recruit soldiers in Ukraine turns violent”.
In their report, the Beeb tells the story of soldier Vasyl Krupych, who survived gruesome battles in eastern Donetsk to end up ‘attacked by his own countrymen whilst out searching for draft dodgers’.
(What they call dodgers we call people trying to survive.)
Krupych was badly beaten with a crowbar. He spent six weeks in hospital with broken ribs.
BBC reported:
“Ukraine’s military ombudswoman says such attacks are now ‘regular’ and ‘a major problem’ as the country struggles to mobilize men to fight. […] It’s not a topic people here care to discuss much, wary of feeding Russian propaganda.
But the latest National Police Service report recorded more than 600 assaults on recruitment officers to date and warned that the aggression has become ‘increasingly threatening’.”
Watch: people rescue mobilized men from TCC’s car.
– Come on, fuck, shoot
In Kharkov, the civilian population began to resist the TCC.
When a man tried to mobilize, some passersby stood up for him and literally took him out of the TCC’s hands.🇷🇺FRONTOVIK pic.twitter.com/gDYDXwwP3n

Some people go to extremes: as in this video where a hiding man shoots a conscription officer.
A military commissar was shot dead in Ukraine 🤷♂️

Attempted busification in Odessa.
А вот еще одно видео всплыло, наверняка ИИ.
«‼️Бусификация на Б. Хмельницкого. Они окружили маршрутку №31 и крутили водителя. Снимали это всё дети, подростки. В итоге водителя забрала скорая, а ТЦК удрали, – одесситы в соц. сетях» pic.twitter.com/2pQV8Gsmoe

“The first big alert came in April when several recruiters were stabbed, one fatally. Then this month in Lviv, some 200 protesters surrounded officers attempting to detain a suspected draft dodger and smashed and overturned their car.
The riot made headlines as President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned violence against serving soldiers.”
🇺🇦‼️🚨 Lviv residents rebelled against forced mobilization!
A big group of people came together and beat up military recruiters and destroyed their cars.
