Russia has no plans for an additional mobilization of men to fight in Ukraine as more than 335,000 have signed up so far this year to fight in the armed forces or voluntary units, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said on Tuesday.
"There are no plans for an additional mobilization," Shoigu was shown telling top generals on state television. "The armed forces have the necessary number of military personnel to conduct the special military operation.""Since the start of the year, more than 335,000 people have entered military service under contract and in volunteer formations," Shoigu said. "In September alone, more than 50,000 citizens signed contracts.
Putin ordered a "partial mobilization" of 300,000 reservists in September last year, prompting hundreds of thousands of young men to flee Russia to avoid being sent to fight.
