"Russia's Military Recruitment Surges with Over 335K Enlistments in 2021"
Russia claims that over 335,000 people have signed up for military service and volunteer units this year, with more than 50,000 signing contracts in September alone. However, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu stated that there are no plans for an additional mobilization to Ukraine, as the armed forces have sufficient personnel for the ongoing military operation. Meanwhile, Russia has announced charges against high-ranking Ukrainian military leaders for "terrorist attacks" involving drone strikes. This move reflects Russia's concern over the growing effectiveness of Ukrainian drone technology in expanding the conflict beyond the frontline.
