Russia has initiated its biggest conscription drive in 14 years in order to strengthen its military forces amid the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Reports suggest that individuals in occupied regions such as Donetsk and Luhansk are being compelled into service through tactics like passport regulations and financial coercion.
