The National Police conducted 600 searches across Ukraine—what prompted this action?

The National Police of Ukraine has launched a large-scale special operation to uncover illegal channels for smuggling conscript-aged men out of the country.

According to the National Police, operatives from the DWR and investigators conducted over 600 searches simultaneously across the nation. This is just the first phase of the operation aimed at halting the activities of the organizers and participants of schemes that helped individuals evade official border checkpoints.

Preliminary data suggests that hundreds of conscripts have illegally crossed the border via these routes. Operations are ongoing in all regions of Ukraine, and details of the special operation will be disclosed after the investigative actions are completed.
