(en) Rusia, AIT: Ukraine: Workers' Resistance Against Mobilization (ca, de, fr, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Date Sat, 22 Nov 2025 08:15:34 +0200


Ukrainians and Russians unwilling to fight are mostly choosing to flee individually. However, the first reports of collective proletarian resistance have emerged. Recently, at least two cases have been reported in Ukraine in which workers at enterprises resisted mobilization. ---- On September 19, in Kovel (Volyn Oblast), military commissariat officers from the Central Control Center (TCC) stormed the premises of the Gas Distribution Networks company, pursuing a man whose documents they wanted to check. At the company, the military commissariat officers were met by three men who threatened the mobilization officers and attempted to beat them. Then, 15 more workers arrived. They attacked the military commissariat officers and damaged their car. The "man-catchers" used tear gas against the workers.

There were injuries as a result of the clash. Police and paramedics were called. After examining five people, paramedics took two of the injured to the hospital by ambulance (https://gazeta.ua/ru/articles/regions/_na-volyni-sotrudniki-tck-vorvalis-na-predpriyatie-i-primenili-protiv-lyudej-slezotochivyj-gaz/1230595)

On October 20, in Kamenskoye (formerly Dniprodzerzhinsk; Dnipropetrovsk Oblast), workers at a private enterprise attempted to rescue a colleague from military commissariats who had burst into their premises. Security guards expelled the intruding TCC (military commissariat) employees, but the workers pursued them beyond the gates after learning that they had managed to grab one of their employees. One of the military commissariat officers threatened a worker with a pistol, while another used tear gas (https://strana.today/news/493543-v-dnepropetrovskoj-oblasti-ukrainy-sluzhashchie-ttsk-podralis-s-rabochimi-video-mobilizatsii.html).

It's worth noting that on October 18, another clash with mobilization officers occurred in the same city. A group of civilians, men and women, were rescuing a fellow countryman from being "busified." Judging by the video, the men managed to prevent the kidnapping by beating up the military commissariat officers and damaging their car.

As we can see, worker solidarity hasn't become a completely empty phrase, even in the shattered and atomized "post-Soviet" societies, where people have been drummed for decades into the idea of "every man for himself." And this gives us hope...
