The wives of mobilized Russian soldiers organized a flash mob to get their husbands back from the front. The so-called “civil rights” of Russian women were immediately suppressed by the relevant authorities.

Women put stickers on car windows with the words: “Bring back your husband, I'm screwed.” Already on December 2, Russian media reported that in the city of Ulyanovsk security forces came to the relevant Russian citizens, reports Channel 24 .

No real cases have been opened yet. In total, the police summoned at least four relatives of the mobilized “to talk.” According to one of them, the security officer told her about responsibility under the article on discrediting the army.

The occupier's wife claims that the policeman was allegedly shocked by instructions from management. Actually, it was as if he didn’t want to go to his mobilized wives, but “someone from above” demanded it.

It is important that the wives of Russian conscripts coordinate their activities in the “Way Home” telegram community. And after the relevant authorities drew attention to the activities of the women of Ulyanovsk, photographs of cars with stickers disappeared from the local chat.

Later it turned out that the Russian women were invited to the meeting by the deputy governor of the Ulyanovsk region. It is unknown who exactly, but the official demanded that the photos of the flash mob be deleted. He demanded that the women remove the stickers from their cars, but they refused.

Mobilization in Russia: the most important thing

• President Vladimir Putin announced the so-called “partial mobilization” in Russia on September 21, 2022. A few months later, the Kremlin decided to curtail it – then Moscow was told that about 300 thousand fighters had been recruited, and more were supposedly not needed.
• However, the decree of the head of the enemy state on mobilization is still in effect – that is, it has not been canceled. This means that at any moment an order may be received to resume active mobilization. Experts suggest that this will happen in the spring of 2024.
• Analysts predict that when pseudo-elections take place in Russia, Putin will have a free hand on this issue. Obviously, for now, the leader of the aggressor state cares about his rating, and therefore does not talk about mobilization. At the same time, Russia is now trying to compensate for the lack of manpower with contract soldiers.
