A new wave of forced mobilization began on August 1 of this year in the territory of ORDLO (certain area of Donetsk and Luhansk regions) to man units of the mobilization reserve. To be selected those people who are unsuitable for service and those who had “deferral”.

New motorized rifle battalions are being formed and the combat capability of existing motorized rifle battalions is being restored within the structural motorized rifle units of the 2nd Army Corps (Luhansk) of the russian occupying forces. In Luhansk, two busloads of men, most of them porters, were taken from the market within 40 minutes. In Alchevsk, men were taken in the middle of the streets. The population is outraged, the men are hiding.

Total forced mobilization continues in many settlements. For example, the number of patrols on the streets of Khrustalnyi town has increased, and without explanation, they take men to military police stations. Raids continue at enterprises and commercial establishments where men are fit for military service work.

At the same time, discontent is spreading among the already mobilized men of ORDLO about the terrible attitude of the command in the occupying army towards the local personnel. In particular, information is circulating that russians are given modern bulletproof vests and helmets, and locals are given ammunition of the 1941-1945 model.
