Russia is struggling to replenish troop numbers after huge losses during its invasion of Ukraine.
Authorities in St. Petersburg have tried to get homeless people to enlist as military recruits for the war in Ukraine, as Russian forces reel from huge troop losses, local media reported.
The homelessness charity Nochlezhka said that employees from the Frunzensky district administration in Russia's second city had visited a shelter on August 17. A Nochlezhka representative told the Ukrainian news outletthat officials tried to talk to those staying at the shelter and leave leaflets containing information about contract services. The duty officer at the shelter did not allow this and asked the officials to talk to the management before they ended up leaving.
Tatyana Bazhenova, a spokesperson for the charity, said that it cannot help facilitate military recruitment for those who use its shelters."We have always been out of religion and out of politics, so we can't help in this matter," she told Bumaga.
