A Ukrainian TV presenter and father of three was fined 1700 UAH for not having a military ID

Anatolii Anatolich, a well-known Ukrainian presenter and father of three minor children, said that he was fined for not having a military ID. The artist paid 1700 hryvnias and went to fix this issue.

However, he faced problems at the military registration and enlistment offices. He was able to get there only on the third attempt and then was instructed to go to another place. The host shared his adventures on Instagram.

The first thing that puzzled the star was the military registration and enlistment office's working hours. For some reason, Google says that visitors are accepted only two days a week, but in fact, they are open on all weekdays.

"I didn't have a military ID. I was fined 1700 UAH for this as if it were a serious traffic violation. And thirdly, it turned out that I am registered at the Obolon TCC. So I had to go there and get deregistered from there," Anatolii said.

But in Obolon, the host joked, they work like in Spain. The artist's visit was postponed to the next day, so he returned home with nothing.

"So tomorrow my quest will continue. Tomorrow I have to get to Obolon, get in line. And the queues are of different colors. I need a blue line. And then, maybe, I will get my documents for military registration," Anatolii summarized.

A military ID card is a document issued by the territorial center for recruitment and social support to citizens when they are called up for active military service or enrolled in the reserve.

Anatolii has three children, and in 2023 he said that he felt guilty for not fighting, but "this feeling stimulates him to donate, do something, and eventually have a result."
