Russia says no further mobilisation plans for Ukraine war

Russian President Vladimir Putin said there were no plans for further military mobilisation in Russia.

At a press conference in the Kazakh capital Astana, Putin said that the “partial mobilisation” he announced last month, which the defence minister said aimed to recruit 300,000 soldiers, was finishing and would be over within two weeks.

So far, 222,000 of the 300,000 reservists the Russian Defense Ministry said would get called up have been mobilised.

A total of 33,000 are already in military units, and 16,000 are involved in the military operation in Ukraine.
