The decree, which was reported by news agency Interfax and also published on the government website for legal announcements, says conscription applies to all citizens aged between 18 and 30 and covers the period from April to July.

    It would be hilarious to see Russians, throwing other Russians at Ukrainian drones, flying hundreds of feet overhead.

      I’m imaging a ringling bros circus act, where 4 people are standing on each others shoulders, and the 5th person runs up, he jumps as high as he can, and then they grab him midair, and throw him 30 up, and the next person throws him up, and so on and so on until he’s like 60 feet in the air.
