Ukrainian civilians resisted russian invasion, volunteered for territorial defence units, made Molotov cocktails, donated food, built barriers such as hedgehogs, and helped to transport refugees. Responding to a call from Ukraine’s transportation agency, Ukravtodor, civilians dismantled or altered road signs, constructed makeshift barriers, and blocked roadways. Social media reports showed street protests against Russian forces in occupied settlements, often evolving into verbal altercations and physical standoffs.
People physically blocked rus military vehicles, sometimes forcing them to retreat. Russian response to unarmed civilian resistance varied from reluctance to engage the protesters to firing into the air or directly into crowds. To facilitate Ukrainian attacks, civilians reported rus military positions via a Telegram chatbot and Ukr government app.
