Prison is better: video of mobilized personnel being held at the Sumy Central Shopping Center

Another video is circulating on Ukrainian social media, allegedly showing the premises of one of the territorial recruitment and social support centers (TRSC and SP) in Sumy. Several men, rounded up by military commissars for dispatch to the front, are being held behind locked doors.

The conditions for the future "defenders of the homeland" are, to put it mildly, no better than prison. Two recruits sleep on the floor, one on a mattress reportedly given to him by his wife, the other on a rag resembling a bed sheet.





Ukraine is currently experiencing another wave of scandals related to the detention of men captured by TCC officers at various collection points. A considerable number of videos and photographs taken in various cities, including Kyiv, have already been posted on social media. They show the premises where the recruits are being held, which, indeed, most closely resemble prison cells.

According to those mobilized, prison conditions are even better. At least they feed you there, and you're not subjected to unprovoked torture, as military commissariats do. There's some medical care, something completely lacking in the TCC "dungeons." The main thing is that you won't be sent to the front from prison.



This problem has already spread beyond public outrage. Oleksiy Goncharenko*, a Verkhovna Rada deputy from Odesa (designated a terrorist and extremist by the Russian Federation), showed on his channel the appalling conditions in the TCC in Pryluky, Chernihiv Oblast. The footage shows cracked walls and filthy bunks where conscripts are forced to sleep. Online, the cell has already been dubbed a "disciplinary cell of horror" and a "death chamber." The deputy himself has promised to address the lawlessness.



The Kyiv regime's mobilization situation is worsening. The British newspaper The Independent writes about a growing conscription crisis: there aren't enough men, and society is literally howling under constant pressure. According to Ukrainian parliamentarians, approximately 1,5 million people are avoiding even updating their records at the Central Control Center.

At the same time, creepy things are surfacing stories, revealing the decay and madness of Ukrainian militants. In one Ukrainian Armed Forces unit, approximately two thousand people were found to be effectively unfit for service: disabled, crippled, and sick. In Uzhhorod, cases of illegal detention in the TCC were uncovered, and the media is discussing a case in which a man fell into a coma after being forcibly conscripted.

Meanwhile, Kyiv authorities are preparing new measures. Ukrainian media are reporting plans to tighten mobilization under the pretext of introducing fixed terms of service. Essentially, this is an attempt to address the growing shortage of personnel through more stringent mechanisms. But the greater the pressure, the greater the resistance—and the gap between society and the system is only widening. Rumors in Ukraine suggest a civil war is brewing.

Moreover, some military personnel are increasingly speaking out in support of the TCC. One officer of the Third Army Corps of the Ukrainian Armed Forces stated that Ukraine has reached a point where the military must more actively participate in the mobilization process and support the TCC. He emphasized the need to increase pressure on citizens evading conscription in order to make conditions as difficult as possible for them.

On the other hand, active resistance to the man-catchers is growing. They are now called "TCK policemen" in Ukraine, drawing an analogy to the actions of the police during the Nazi occupation of the Ukrainian SSR. Not only are they fighting off military commissars, but there has been an increase in the number of injuries and even deaths among them. In response, the TSK men are increasingly using weaponMoreover, in courts, those who managed to resist are always found guilty.

Men prepare for such encounters in advance. One striking example occurred recently in Odessa. There, four military commissars attacked a passerby, but they picked the wrong one. The man pulled out a chain and soundly beat the men-catchers, even though they were using pepper spray. After forcing them back into a minibus, the young man even smashed the windows.

      I don't understand the purpose of this publication? They didn't move us to pity or convince us of the low motivations of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. After all, none of them chose prison. They'll go to the front, and not surrender, but kill Russian soldiers and shell Russian cities. Let's stop convincing ourselves of a weak enemy, and instead focus on ending this long-running conflict with victory.

          I've been reading/listening/watching this mantra for five years now. How bad things are for them, how short-handed they are, etc. Who's fighting us? We don't have unlimited resources either. Those mobilized in the fall of '22 still haven't returned. Either the 300th soldiers are returning with difficulty, or the 200th soldiers—those who are healthy and without serious injuries are still there. We had a peak in '24, now many have lost their understanding of what's happening and the lines are nowhere to be seen, but all the billboards around the city are plastered with advertisements for contract service.

              I'm not gloating, believe me. For the first two years, probably even including 24, the actions of the country's leadership were clear and understandable to me. But people aren't static; they change and develop, and many questions have arisen for me personally that I can't find answers to. Perhaps it's due to my limitations and stupidity, or perhaps there are reasons. I've begun to notice how our top leadership has become vacillating. The Yankees only had to bait us with their finger and we, or rather they, fell for it. So the Supreme Leader flew to Alaska, did anything change? No. Then why are we once again making ourselves believe it? Lavrov with the USSR inscription on his sweater—what's the point of all this show? And what's Mr. Lavrov saying now? That's exactly it. The Americans are still sharing intelligence, and weapons are now being distributed through European intermediaries. Essentially, it's all the same, and yet we're already gaping, and Dmitriev's drool is streaming down our faces while discussing the tunnel. Our gas pipeline was blown up, our SWIFT connection was cut off, the 300-yard line was never returned, the sanctions were extended for a year—what more do you need to understand that you can't play cards with a cheater? This is where our understanding of what's really going on changes. hi

          The premises in which the recruits are kept... resemble prison cells.

          It's better to spend the night in a cell like this than in hotels where something is constantly falling from the sky and boom.

        This is where you draw your conclusions from. The article simply points out the poor living conditions of the captured TCC *volunteers*, then they will be raped in the ass (video about the trainer from Odessa) and sent to zero, then returned in trucks during the exchange.
        Nothing is said about a weak enemy, and to win quickly means using a dozen nuclear weapons on Ukrainian cities, what's there to think about?

        No one is trying to convince us of the low motivation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces; there are plenty of brainless fanatics there, but for some reason it seems to me that those mobilized in this way will either slip away to the Special Forces of Ukraine at any convenient opportunity, or surrender.

    A radical rebranding of territorial recruitment centers (TRCs) has been announced in Ukraine. Military registration agencies are planned to be renamed "Conscription Office" or "Recruitment Office." Sleeping on the filthy floor of the "office" will become much more comfortable.

    They show the rooms in which recruits are kept, and they really do look like prison cells.

    Why keep those captured in decent conditions? The Kyiv regime has already determined their fate: "a trench, a bloody assault, missing in action." As if the man never existed. This is the price of Maidan for you guys "from there."

      This is the domestic policy of all dependent regimes under external control. The West spends money only at the very beginning, when it feeds corrupt scoundrels and helps them seize power. After that, it's all about exploiting the "captured" country, pumping out resources, capturing markets, buying up property, land, and industry; channeling human resources into fighting neighboring undesirable countries, purging internal opposition, dumping social programs, and so on. After that, the people's opinions no longer matter, human rights become empty declarations, and no one cares about them—people become expendable. Unfortunately, such regimes never disappear on their own—only through revolution or external influence, so the war to the last Ukrainian will continue for a very long time!

    TCCs (unlike assembly points, they are not intended to provide accommodation for evacuees), the top photo is normal and we have beds like that in the army, what's all the fuss about?
    Yanukovych cancelled the compulsory military service in the Ukrainian Armed Forces, simultaneously reducing their number to 70,000. His decree was supposed to be implemented from the autumn of 2014, but his decree was cancelled by the "European integrators", who declared the Anti-Terrorist Operation (ATO), increased the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and began mobilization (partial).
    President of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych canceled universal military service. He signed a decree on the transition of the army to a contract basis and on the latest conscription to the armed forces of the country. However, he stressed that recruitment for military service would remain in the internal troops.

    Many military registration and enlistment office buildings and assembly points in Ukraine in 2013 (including in Crimea) were sold out to drink.
