Details: At the same time, the occupying authorities claim that "leaving Crimea is not prohibited"; however, Crimeans who want to leave "must obtain permission from the military enlistment office at their place of residence."

It is also reported that non-registered male citizens of Crimea must register in the military enlistment office at the place of their actual stay.

In cases where it is impossible to find a person to deliver the mobilisation notice, he will be contacted by mobile phone.

Background:

  • On the morning of 21 September, Vladimir Putin announced partial mobilisation.
  • Later it turned out that the decree on mobilisation contains a hidden paragraph which allows the Russian Ministry of Defence to draft up to a million people for the war.
  • Protests were held in Russian cities after partial mobilisation was announced. Law enforcement agencies report that police arrested at least 1,176 people. 
  • Detained protesters were issued mobilisation notices in Moscow and Voronezh.
