Russia has reportedly warned that those who protest Vladimir Putin's decision to call up reservists to fight in Ukraine will be drafted into the military.
Protests are planned to take place across the country on Wednesday evening, opposing Putin's decree to partially mobilize Russia's armed forces.
Russian media outlets have warned that anyone taking part in "illegal rallies" will be subject to military conscription, according to Samuel Ramani, an associate fellow at the Royal United Services Institute for Defence and Security Studies.
Top Kremlin propagandist Vladimir Solovyov shared a post on Telegram outlining the measures.

Very clever...
So it’s your shift now? Where do you freaks come from?
Don’t give Biden any ideas!
Conscripting protestors isn’t a good way to increase morale. Nor will it produce soldiers eager to fight.

Maybe he just wants to be available to rebut your pro-Russia swill.
LOL. Imagine if America did this with rioters back in 2020... Jan 6 would have been peaceful and Patriotic.
I agree. That’s brilliant.
There’s a man with a gun over there....
Telling me I’ve got to beware................
They’ll be used the clear mine fields. No experience necessary; just be able to walk across a field.
I don’t think Putin is stupid enough to do this.
More made-up propagandsfrom Newsweak.
Ukraine is conscripting women.
Sad.
They will be front line cannon fodder.
That was my thought as well. An army of slaves, essentially, is not going to be effective fighting an army of free men. It is more likely to turn on its masters.

“For What It’s Worth”
There’s something happening here
But what it is ain’t exactly clear
There’s a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it’s time we stop
Children, what’s that sound?
Everybody look - what’s going down?
There’s battle lines being drawn
Nobody’s right if everybody’s wrong
Young people speaking’ their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
It’s time we stop
Hey, what’s that sound?
Everybody look - what’s going down?
What a field day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly saying, “hooray for our side”
It’s time we stop
Hey, what’s that sound?
Everybody look - what’s going down?
Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you’re always afraid
Step out of line, the man come and take you away
We better stop
Hey, what’s that sound?
Everybody look - what’s going down?
We better stop
Hey, what’s that sound?
Everybody look - what’s going down?
We better stop
Now, what’s that sound?
Everybody look - what’s going down?
We better stop
Children, what’s that sound?
Everybody look - what’s going down?
The return of the KGB Russia.
These reluctant conscripts will be given toy guns and placed on the front lines.
Welcome to the new Soviet Union.🙄
The American version would be the New York Times.
