Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy says Russia has started a fresh military mobilisation drive. According to his claims, the effort also involves foreign nationals, as Ukraine monitors Russian manpower developments amid the ongoing war.
The two outlets report the same core allegation, attributing it to Zelenskiy and focusing on the claim rather than providing independent verification or additional details such as locations, numbers, or timelines. As presented, the reporting does not include an official response from Russia or confirm whether the claimed participation of foreigners refers to particular countries or groups. The context across the coverage is Ukraine’s view of Russian mobilisation activity, framed within a broader pattern of recruitment and manpower measures discussed throughout the conflict. Readers are left with Zelenskiy’s statement as the primary source for the new mobilisation claim.
