In order to replenish losses in its occupation forces in Ukraine, Russia sent conscripts from South Ossetia, whom it persuaded to sign contracts, to the occupied Melitopol of the Zaporizhzhia region.
This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
It is noted that the Russian Federation, despite numerous victims, does not give up the war of aggression and constantly takes measures to replenish the losses of manpower.
