Russian Prosecutor General says more than 9,000 illegally mobilized soldiers have been sent back home

Russian Prosecutor General Igor Krasnov said during a meeting with Vladimir Putin on Tuesday that more than 9,000 soldiers who were illegally mobilized have now been sent home, including some who were unqualified to serve in the military due to health issues.

Krasnov also acknowledged that an “array of significant problems” came to light during the country’s mobilization campaign, and that this “served as a lesson for many.” Nonetheless, he assured the president that “all of the funds [that the government owed to servicemen] have now been disseminated,” and “the majority of issues” with body armor and other uniform elements have been solved.
