More than 2,300 people arrested in Russia for demonstrating against the military mobilization ordered by Putin
More than 2,300 people have been arrested in the framework of the protests registered in Russia as a result of the military mobilization decreed by the president, Vladimir Putin, on September 21 on the occasion of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The OVD-Info organization has indicated that the announcement has also sparked numerous attempts by Russian citizens to move to neighboring countries in an attempt to avoid being sent to the front. Voices critical of the Putin government accuse the Kremlin of trying to primarily mobilize men from the poorest and most remote areas of the country.
On Sunday, at least 101 people were arrested in the city of Makhachkala, in Dagestan, in the southwest of the country, during a new protest against the measure.
Several Russian media outlets have shared videos through social networks showing discussions between protesters and police officers.
Since the military offensive against Kyiv began, the military from the Dagestan region has suffered heavy casualties. In this sense, the regional authorities have indicated that only those with "military training" will be deployed on Ukrainian territory.
