“The occupiers plan to mobilize (across all occupied territories of Ukraine — ed.) 50–100 thousand men aged 18 to 55 for the war against Ukraine. Previously, mobilization took place only in the occupied territories of the Donetsk, Luhansk oblasts, and Crimea”, - writes Deputy Commander of the Third Army Corps Dmytro Kukharchuk on his Telegram channel.
