Except that:
The military command of the Russian Federation suspends the sending of new, already formed, units to the territory of Ukraine due to the mass refusal of volunteers to participate in hostilities. This is stated in the operational summary of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Facebook on Monday, September 12.
The General Staff notes that there is a growing distrust to the higher command in Russia, due to which a large number of volunteers categorically refuse the prospect of service in combat conditions.

Who knows?
There really is no reason to believe anything we read about any of this.
Suppose They Gave a War and Nobody Came
LOL. Russia is using around 10% of it’s troops. If Russia took Eukraine seriously, it would be over in a week. The western propaganda is marvelous, Mengles had to learn it from someone.
Elsewhere it was suggested that as a result of the Uke advances around Kharkiv it might be possible for them to use the old style missiles to strike the railroad in Russia running parallel to the Ukraine border. They would be close enough to the border to use those munitions rather than the modern long range missiles that could justify Russia in changing their recruitment limitations from mostly volunteers to a draft.
