Background:
In an address to fellow Russians on September 21, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced "partial" mobilisation. Later, it turned out that in the decree on conscription, there is a secret point that allows the country's Defence Ministry to call up for war more than a million people, mostly from villages.
On 24 September, Russian cities hosted rallies against the war in Ukraine and the conscription of Russian citizens; hundreds of people were detained.
