Kremlin Military Legal Adjustments
Defense force members will now have to guard oil refineries against aerial attacks after the Russian leader signed a law on Tuesday extending their entanglement in the conflict. The head of state also enacted a decree permitting draft enrollment continuously whereas previously it was possible only during specific times in autumn and spring.
