Since the beginning of the so-called partial mobilisation in Russia in September 2022, tens of thousands of men have been mobilised in the occupied Crimea. Since 2014, about 40,000 people have been called up for military service.
The occupiers are mobilizing men in Crimea
According to Tamila Tasheva, the Permanent Representative of the President of Ukraine in Crimea, in an interview with the portal Dron.Media, statistics on the mobilisation of men from Crimea are "classified information".
We try to monitor this through additional sources. For example, it is the allocation of land plots to those who have joined the contract service. Or by the number of funerals. It's hard to say for sure, but these are tens of thousands of people who were mobilised during the entire period of the full-scale invasion, but not all of them are known, Tasheva said.
She also noted that since 2014 - the beginning of the Russian occupation - about 40,000 people have been called up for military service in Crimea.
This is clearly a violation of international humanitarian law, a crime. Since the occupying power has no right to conscript citizens living in the territory into its armed forces, this is a violation of the Geneva Convention, the President's Permanent Representative in Crimea concluded.
What is happening in Crimea
Russian troops, probably fearing a counter-offensive by Ukrainian forces, are moving significant resources to Dzhankoi.
In addition, guerrillas recently captured a convoy of old military equipment in the village of Orikhivka (Crimea), which was moving towards Dzhankoy.
It has also been recently reported that the Russian occupiers are having major problems with the arrival of mobilised Russians in Crimea. There have been several cases of their disappearance in Dzhankoy. For this reason, in late October, military police units were deployed to the city to ensure the safety of the occupiers' personnel.
In addition, Atesh agents monitored how the Russian occupation forces were actively moving electronic warfare systems closer to military facilities. The reason for this is to protect the equipment from attacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The guerrillas spotted the movement of the 1L265 reconnaissance module and 1L66 control system, which are part of the Moscow-1 complex. The vehicles were heading to the missile and technical base in occupied Yevpatoriya.
