— Marta Havryshko
"- Why are women at the center of this resistance?
- Why are they labeled 'traitors' and 'useful idiots'?
- How does the state respond to women’s riots?
-Can a revolt of angry women shake Zelensky’s grip on power?"

"Busification," Ukraine's word of the year for 2024, describes the mass forced mobilization (word of the year 2023) of Ukrainian men that involves stuffing them into unmarked minibuses and often becomes more violent thereafter. It has met with widespread resistance from ordinary bystanders—virtually always women—and online communities, but has drawn nowhere near as much attention from international supporters of Ukraine.
Ukraine: Lieber leben als heroisch sterben
Der Widerstand gegen die
Zwangsrekrutierungen wird in der Ukraine immer sichtbarer und radikaler

Controlli aggressivi e #busification. Più testate estere hanno documentato pratiche controverse: controlli documentali per strada e nei locali, accompagnamenti forzati ai #TCC (“busification”), e contestazioni su corruzione e abusi di alcuni addetti al reclutamento. Le Monde ha raccontato come queste pratiche abbiano alimentato un forte risentimento sociale. I TCC sono i centri territoriali di reclutamento.

Il problema dei #renitenti alla leva in #Ucraina
#Podolyak ha affermato che la diffusione di informazioni sulla #busification porta alla demoralizzazione. Ha detto che la #Russia ha interesse a dimostrare che la mobilitazione in Ucraina è andata male per creare l'impressione che tutto sia negativo. https://112.ua/en/podolak-zrobiv-zaavu-pro-busifikaciu-colovikiv-49769
Podolyak made a statement about the busification of men
The President of Ukraine continues to face cases of 'busification' of conscripted men. This was reported by the advisor to the head of the President's Office, Mykhailo Podolyak. Podolyak noted that the General Staff and relevant authorities are trying to resolve this issue, but progress is slow. He also pointed out that changing traditions and attitudes takes time, as they have developed over many years. According to Podolyak, Ukraine did not suddenly change as of February 24, 2022. Podolyak also stated that the spread of information about 'busification' is beneficial, as it leads to demoralization. He said that scaling and spreading this phenomenon are different tasks. Russia has an interest in showing that mobilization in Ukraine has gone wrong to create the impression that everything is negative. Earlier, Lubinets stated that there has been progress in combating 'busification'. According to him, the Ukrainian Office responds carefully to all citizens' complaints regarding the illegal actions of the TCC employees. In some cases, the response even led to criminal or disciplinary proceedings against employees.
#busification #Ucraina #renitenti
Il dizionario Myslovo della lingua e dello slang ucraino moderno nel 2024 ha scelto il neologismo "busification". Questo termine, che descrive la mobilitazione forzata, è diventato un argomento centrale di attenzione pubblica. Sono sorti gruppi Telegram anti-busification.
La parola deriva da "bus" (minibus) e "-ification".
Busification è il reclutamento coatto che consiste nel caricare a forza su un minibus quelli che non vogliono andare in guerra.

Forced conscription in Ukraine:
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has ignited outrage by sharing graphic footage of a Hungarian citizen, József Sebestyén, allegedly beaten to death by Ukrainian conscription officers. Calling it a case of “state-led lawlessness,” Orbán demanded EU sanctions against those responsible and declared that Ukraine must never be allowed to join the European Union.
