Putin will not be able to cope with the effects of mobilization - isw
Analysts from the Institute of War Study in its regular summary reports. In order for such an initiative to have some effect in the long run, Putin will need to eliminate the shortcomings in the supply system of Russian troops. But, given all, he is more concerned about increasing the number of military on the battlefield rather than eliminating major problems. The RF Army has not created conditions for effective large -scale mobilization since 2008.
There were no reserve forces for urgent departure to the battlefield. And the quick solutions to these problems are not envisaged. Partial mobilization will mainly affect those Russians who do not want to fight, who have not expressed a desire to join volunteer battalions or participate in the Bars program. Compared to the previous efforts for this part, less qualified personnel will be involved.
Military commissioners have to perform two tasks at the same time, since in parallel with the forced mobilization of the reserve continues to form voluntary battalions. Putin still refuses to call the war a "special operation" and does not create information conditions in the Russian Federation to prepare residents for forced mobilization. Protests among the population indicate that the Kremlin leadership failed to prepare the Russians for the Great War.
Officials and propagandists ridiculed the Western press reports that Putin had made a decision to start a large -scale war, which was not ready and some servicemen who believed that they were involved in training. We will remind that under Odessa the evacuation of residents after the attack of drones-champs began. According to the operational command in the Southern Region, two of the expected Iranian UAVs attacked a military facility, one of which was knocked down.
