1/ Russia's police will be used to detain men en masse and force them to sign military contracts, according to a Russian source. It's claimed that rather than carrying out a 'traditional' mobilisation, the same effect will be achieved by exploiting pretexts to force men to join the army. ⬇️

Updated infographic. We don't have information if the final part of the Samara facility was fully manned. In mid 2025 2/3rds of the facility or 128 000 square meters of the total 176 000 were launched. We have 10 000 jobs for mid 2025.
