In Odesa, officers of the Territorial Recruitment Center (full name Territorial Center of Recruitment and Social Support – Ed.) came to the Iversky men’s monastery of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. This was reported by the “Typical Odesa” channel on September 10, 2025.

The military enlistment officers were accompanied by police.

Media say the monastery was cordoned off, and inside they began checking the documents of men of conscription age.

Official bodies did not comment on the situation.

As the UOJ previously reported, TRC staff detained a monk of the Kyiv–Pechersk Lavra.
