Russian Military News: Russia has launched its most extensive military draft in a decade, summoning 160,000 men aged 18 to 30 for a year-long service term. This escalation aligns with President Vladimir Putin’s plan to boost the nation’s active troop strength to 1.5 million within three years.
Authorities have assured that the newly drafted conscripts will not be deployed to the Ukraine conflict, despite evidence indicating some have already died in skirmishes near the border. Amid U.S.-brokered ceasefire initiatives, Russia persists with its military operations, citing Ukrainian drone attacks as justification for ongoing aggression.
Running through July, the conscription campaign employs both conventional summons and digital alerts, as the government seeks to offset significant battlefield casualties in Ukraine.
