After months of the Ukraine war, Vladimir Putin announced partial mobilization.

Pictures of men saying goodbye to their families are now going around the world.

Moscow - After months of escalating the Ukraine conflict, Kremlin boss Vladimir Putin has now announced "partial mobilization".

Previously, the Kremlin always spoke of a military "special operation" when invading Ukraine.

The announcements by the Russian President sparked protests in some Russian cities.

Thousands of people in Russia expressed their dissatisfaction with the war in Ukraine and the further war plans of their president.

However, none of this changes the fact that the first reservists are already being drafted, as new videos show.

Ukraine War: Men in Siberia say goodbye to their families

A journalist for the British

Guardian

, Pjotr ​​Sauer, shared a video on Twitter showing men in the Siberian city of Yakutsk.

The video is one of the first to show men in Russia having to say goodbye to their families after being called to the front.

After the men have said goodbye to their families, you can see them getting into white buses, which will probably take them to the military afterwards.

Some of the Moscow reservists I spoke to said they were going to training now and would be at the front in two to three weeks.”
