Fury over mobilization authorities’ alleged rule-breaking forced recruitment of men with little to no training is growing.
Armed officers robbing men
Teams of armed enlistment officers working with the police have been robbing men in offices, on the street, and in subway trains in Russian cities.
In response to Putin’s demand that Russia locate an additional 80,000 men to bring the overall number of recruits for the initial stage of enrollment to 300,000, Russia today increased security for mobilisation teams and enlistment offices.
Numerous men flee to other nations
National guardsmen will defend them, according to MP Alexander Khinshtein. Numerous men have fled to other countries as a result of the mobilisation, protesting Putin by voting with their feet.
