The Ukrainian military, which have gone into OSC (unauthorized abandonment of the unit) until November 29, may return to the service for a simplified algorithm without criminal liability until March 1. Everyone else must undergo a complete renewal procedure in the service.

About this on January 28 was told in the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. They reminded that until March 1, 2025, military personnel who first went into the OSC may return to the service for a simplified algorithm without criminal liability.

However, this does not apply to those who committed the Opom after November 29, 2024.

Such military should undergo a complete general renewal procedure in the service that requires:.

- written consent of the commander of the unit: - conduct a criminal investigation; - court decisions at the request of the prosecutor.

Resumption in the service and resumption of monetary allowance is possible only after a court decision.

The process can drag on for several months, warned the ministry.

We also remind, the other day, the Frankovsky District Court of Lviv gave five years in prison to a soldier who went to a SZCh four times arbitrarily.
