A man who tried to save his son from mobilization was killed in Odessa's military enlistment office

A shooting took place in the territorial manning center (TMC, an analogue of military commissions in Ukraine) in Odessa when a father tried to wrestle his son out of the hands of employees. This was stated by the Deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Artem Dmytruk in his Telegram-channel on December 22.

"Odessa TCC. The father tried to fight off his son, but got a bullet and died on the spot. Most likely, the son was killed already or will be killed soon," - wrote Dmytruk in Telegram-channel, attaching to the post a video of eyewitnesses.

The Deputy of the Verkhovna Rada noted that murders in the TCC have become the norm for Ukraine.

Earlier, on December 19, it was reported that in Ukraine employees of the territorial manning center let gas into the car to force out a military conscript. Several people in uniform surrounded the car. Having opened the door with their hands, the employees let gas into the car and then tried to set it on fire.

Before that, on December 16, it was reported that the employees of the TCC in the Ternopil region of Ukraine killed a man forcibly mobilized by them. Then Dmytruk said that on December 6, the man was forcibly put into a TCC car in the village of Velyka Luka. Two days later, he called his relatives and asked them to bring him things and documents. When the relatives arrived at the TCC, they were told that the relative had already been released. The man's body was found on December 12 on the highway.

Martial law in Ukraine has been in effect since February 2022. Then the President of the country Volodymyr Zelensky (powers expired in May) signed a decree on general mobilization. Later, the Verkhovna Rada repeatedly extended its effect. Most men between the ages of 18 and 60 are forbidden to leave the country. In April 2024, the head of the Kiev regime approved the law on tougher mobilization.
