Russia has expelled soldiers from compulsory military service in Ukraine on Thursday who have been forced to sign treaties or have been signed by someone else, but only four of a 100-person company have returned, Senator Ludmila Narusova told a meeting of Russia’s upper house constitutional legislative committee on Friday.

“In the end, four out of 100 ornaments survived,” said the senator, who represents Tuvu in the upper house.
She has asked the Ministry of Defense to confirm or deny this information, but has not received a reply.
“A military authority that refuses to confirm is true [informācija] is not it. How is that? “Narusova asked.
The news was presented by Narusova at a hearing on amendments to the Penal Code, which provides for 15 years in prison for false information.
The Agenstvo reported on February 24, the first day of the war, that the deployment of conscript soldiers in Ukraine who had been threatened with signing the contract or replaced by the leadership had been reported by the Agenstvo, the first day of the war.
Narusova then visited her mother and later announced that there was a huge amount of letters received.
“They have nothing to lose, they are looking for something to give them information. They have seen photos of their real sons and started to communicate and found out that some are in captivity, some have fallen. But the question of collecting the bodies of the fallen has not been raised, “said the senator.
Narusova also said she did not associate herself with those who “stand up for war.”
The Committee of Mothers of Soldiers reported that five soldiers from the army were being sent to the border with Ukraine. Among them are soldiers who were called up in December 2021 and are not prepared for battle.
Russia’s defense ministry denies sending conscripts to “hotspots”.
According to the law, soldiers of compulsory service may be sent to the battle zone not earlier than four months after the beginning of the service.
The soldiers’ mothers report that the sons have stopped keeping in touch.
According to estimates by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, about 9,000 Russian soldiers lost their lives in Ukraine in the first week of the war.
