Recently, Sternenko mentioned on his Telegram channel that he was allegedly listed as wanted for failing to appear at the Territorial Recruitment Center (TRC). He suggested that this situation could be a "message" from the military system due to his criticism and calls for reforms that many Ukrainian servicemen are demanding.
Sternenko further speculated that the news might also be an attempt by certain individuals or organizations to disrupt the supply of drones to the military and projects aimed at countering Russian reconnaissance and strike drones. However, he clarified that he was not officially listed as wanted in the Reserve+ system and that, on the day of the alleged announcement, he was actually attending a meeting at the Ministry of Defense.
The Odessa Regional TRC dismissed Sternenko's claims as "attempts to discredit the activities of the TRC," asserting that there was no basis for his allegations.
The Ukrainian Ground Forces emphasized that the Armed Forces of Ukraine highly value the contributions of volunteers in the fight against Russian invaders, highlighting Sternenko's effective cooperation with the defense forces.
