The Russian Federation has increased the manpower of its Armed Forces to 2 million 389 thousand people, including 1.5 million military personnel.
The Russian media reported on this.
Russia previously increased the number of its Armed Forces in December 2023, when the army was increased by 170,000 people.
The reason for the increase in the number of personnel has not been disclosed; last time, it was argued that threats to Russia from the war against Ukraine and NATO expansion were growing.
In January, Russia announced plans to increase the number of troops to 1.5 million from 2023 to 2026.

In the process, it is planned to create new military districts – Moscow and Leningrad, as well as self-sufficient groupings of troops (forces) in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine.
In addition, the aggressor country plans to form an army corps in Karelia, three motorized rifle divisions as part of the Ground Forces, and two airborne assault divisions (airborne forces).
There are plans to reorganize seven motorized rifle brigades into divisions in the Western, Central, Eastern military districts and the Northern Fleet.
The Russians also plan to strengthen the combat component of the Russian Navy, the Russian Aerospace Forces and the Strategic Missile Forces.

As the number of army personnel increases, the number of training grounds will also increase to ensure practical operations of the troops.
Militarnyi previously reported that 45 Indian citizens had been rescued from the war zone and discharged from the Russian military, but fifty more Indian nationals continued to fight on the side of Russia against Ukraine.
Indian citizens, according to the report, were illegally made to join the Russian army and fight for them on battle fronts against Ukraine.
When will Europe send the military-aged males back to Ukraine? When will Biden emerge from his fear and lethargy? When will Scholz grow a set and do the right thing? When will sanctions bite hard, without being circumvented? When will the promised arms and ammo arrive on time and in full?
The orcs always lie, why would I think what they are saying now is truthful?
Well, maybe it’s a lie, but promising so much money has got to have an effect on those poor slobs out east.
But, by the time they realize they’ve been lied to, that there will be no riches, it’ll be much too late. Many won’t even realize it because they will die beforehand.
Most likely, their battle worthiness will be quite poor. They get a couple of weeks basic training, get cheap chinese uniforms, plastic helmets, rusky AKs, and off they go into a glorious death. The stray dogs and cats will be happy.
Agreed. At some point they won’t have enough money to keep buying bodies. Well I guess they’ll go to Africa and get more.
Or just print more. 😂
If there were plenty of orcs they wouldn’t be pulling them from the Donbas and sending them to Kursk.
