They plan to recruit 130 thousand people for military service in Russia.
Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on the beginning of the autumn conscription into the army.
The BBC reports this.
The autumn conscription will last from October 1 to December 31 2023 in all regions of Russia, as well as in the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine, in particular in Crimea.
During this conscription for military service in Russia, it is planned to recruit 130 thousand recruits.
Although The Russian military has traditionally assured that conscripts will not be sent to war in Ukraine, but if they are forced to enter into contracts with the Russian army, this option is quite possible.
The draft age this fall will remain the same – from 18 to 27 years. By the age of 30 (while maintaining the lower limit of 18 years), it will be increased next fall, when the next conscription begins.
Last year, the conscription campaign in the Russian Federation began later due to the fact that Putin announced a “partial” mobilization.
Recall that earlier national security expert Ivan Varchenko counted the number of Russians drafted into the army during the “partial” and hidden mobilization, and predicted a disappointing situation for the Kremlin with protests in the event of an attempt to replenish the army with new “cannon fodder” “.
