Andriushchenko clarified that residents of Mariupol were sent together with other conscripts from the so-called "dpr" and "lpr" to the city of bataysk in rostov region. Zaporizhzhia residents were sent separately, from the territory of Zaporizhzhia region.
In fact, this will be the first time our children who are under occupation will join the enemy army in 2022. Not at the call of their hearts, but under duress
He also added that conscripts from the occupied territories will serve in military units located nearby - occupied Crimea, rostov region and krasnodar region.
Recall
russia has started recruiting conscripts from the occupied territories of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions to serve in the annexed Crimea. The reason is the shortage of military personnel due to the massive participation of Crimean units in the war against Ukraine.
