Officers of the Volyn Regional Territorial Recruitment and Social Support Center forcibly made Father Oleh get into a minibus. The recruitment officers did not check any of the UOC cleric’s documents. They then took him to the Volyn Regional TRC and Social Support Center to undergo a military medical examination.

The UOJ Telegram channel has published a guide providing a step-by-step procedure for what to do during the first three hours following an unlawful mobilization.

As the UOJ previously reported, TRC officers detained a dean of the Oleksandriia Eparchy.
