The command of the Western Military District of the Russian Armed Forces completely failed recruitment for military service. According to the recruitment plan, in order to partially cover the losses of the Russian army in Ukraine, about three thousand people were supposed to be recruited for service under the contract, and 11.

“As it turned out, the citizens of the Russian Federation do not want to enter the military service under the contract, because they understand that they will soon be sent to the war zone in Ukraine,” the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reports..

In March, they accepted for military service under the contract:.

in the 1st tank army - eight people;

in the 6th combined arms army - two;

in the 20th combined arms army - not a single;

in the Baltic Fleet - one.

Due to the disruption of the recruitment plan, the commander of the Western Military District, Colonel General Alexander Zhuravlev, plans to remove Major General I. Belyavsky.
