UKRAINA. Moskva har inlett en kampanj för att uppmuntra fler ryssar att ansluta sig till de väpnade styrkorna som strider i Ukraina. Detta trots att Kreml förnekat att de behöver fler rekryter i nuläget, skriver CNN.
I ryska propagandavideor som lagts ut i sociala medier de senaste dagarna delar ryska soldater berättelser om patriotism och moral samt social och ekonomisk status. En av filmerna visar en ung man som väljer att strida istället för att festa med sina vänner och sedan överraskar dem genom att köpa en ny bil med pengarna han tjänat.
Sedan president Putin gav order om en partiell mobilisering i september har tusentals män flytt Ryssland för att undvika att sättas in i det blodiga terrorkriget, och nu ökar oron för att en ny mobilisering står runt hörnet.
