Ukrainian Officials Warn Of Potential New Draft As Tensions Escalate
The National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine has stated that covert mobilization in Russia is intensifying, with people being detained and forced to sign contracts. This development comes as Russia’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzya, has denied plans for a new mass mobilization. However, Ukrainian officials warn that the scale of mobilization could influence Russia’s decision on a new open draft, and some Russian citizens are already fleeing to neighboring countries in anticipation of potential mobilization. The situation remains uncertain, with the Russian government submitting a bill to impose fines for failure to comply with mobilization decisions. This report was first published by UA.NEWS.
