Head of Yakutia says residents called up ‘by mistake’ should be returned — Meduza [1]

Aisen Nikolayev, Head of Yakutia, announced that residents mobilized “by mistake” must be returned from the armed forces.

He spoke about people who lack military experience and about men supporting multiple children:

Unfortunately, we have had people called up who should not have been called up, according to the president’s order. We should have a dual “filtration” system, first in local districts, and second here at the republic’s collection point. There are cases of conscription of those who do not serve, there are cases where people with four children have been conscripted. They are now being returned, at our request, from Khabarovsk, where they were taken.

On September 21, Russia launched a mobilization against “the war machine of the collective West” in Ukraine. The mobilization is called “partial” but, according to numerous testimonies, has often been indiscriminate.
