• Russian MPs have also proposed a law to provide the National Guard more power to enforce a military draft.

EKO HOT BLOG reports that fears of a second mass mobilisation grow as Russian lawmakers offer subtle hints that they are abandoning the Russian rule that exempted fathers of three or more children from mobilisation.

For weeks, Ukraine has predicted Putin would call a further 500,000 conscripts to the front line on top of the 300,000 he tried to mobilise last year, but despite the subtle law change, Vladimir Putin has so far denied the plan for another mass mobilisation.
