A series of arson attacks on military registration and enlistment offices swept across the country after the start of the Russian military operation on the territory of Ukraine and especially intensified after the announcement of partial mobilization on September 21.

On Friday, September 23, the building of the administration of the city of Kamyshin was set on fire, the next day the building of the administration of the Bereslavsky rural settlement burned down.

In Kostroma, the building of the military commissariat was painted with obscene protest inscriptions calling against mobilization.

On the morning of September 26, in the city of Ust-Ilimsk, Irkutsk Region, a 25-year-old local resident entered the military registration and enlistment office and, with the words “no one will fight”, fired six times point-blank at the head of the commissariat. The wounded military commissar was taken to intensive care, the shooter was detained. On the eve of the attack, he was extremely upset due to the fact that the summons to mobilize came to his best friend, who had never served in the army and had no combat experience.

“They said that there would be partial mobilization, but it turns out that they take everyone,” the mother of the detained Irkutsk citizen told reporters.
