The mayor of Moscow announces the end of "partial mobilization" in the city

MADRID, 17 Oct. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The mayor of Moscow, Sergei Sobianin, announced on Monday the end of the "partial mobilization" in the city decreed by Russian President Vladimir Putin to strengthen the capacity of the Russian Armed Forces in the midst of the war in Ukraine.

"According to information from the Moscow military commissar, the partial mobilization tasks, established on the basis of a presidential decree and instructions from the Ministry of Defense, have been fully completed," explained the Moscow mayor.

Sobianin has specified that the collection points of the mobilized will be closed this Monday from 2:00 p.m. (local time). "The calls sent in the mobilization process to the place of residence and companies are no longer valid," he added, according to the Interfax news agency.

The Russian authorities confirmed last week that around 222,000 people have already been recruited within the framework of the "partial mobilization" decreed in the country, which had the objective of reaching 300,000 mobilized.

The "partial mobilization" decreed by Putin provoked demonstrations in Moscow, as well as in other Russian cities such as Saint Petersburg, after the Prosecutor's Office warned potential attendees of these marches that they could be committing a crime.
