YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAs Moscow looks to carve out more Ukrainian territory it is also trying to bolster its forces with a partial mobilization order involving 300 thousand reservists — a move which has caused a flood of Russian men to flee to neighboring countries.
According to British military intelligence, the number of Russian military-age men fleeing "likely exceeds the size of the total invasion force Russia fielded in February 2022."
Amid domestic criticism, Putin told Russia's Security Council on Thursday that errors had been made in the mobilization.
Putin said Russian men mistakenly called up should be sent home and that only reservists with proper military training and specialties should be called to serve.
