Russia confirms mistakes made during troop call-up for Ukraine war, and vows to fix them
Russian authorities on Sunday promised to fix the mistakes in their troop call-up for Ukraine, after some public outrage over students, older or sick people being mistakenly ordered to report for duty.
When Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a partial mobilisation on Wednesday, he said only people with "relevant" skills or military experience would be concerned.
But many expressed outrage after seeing -- sometimes absurd -- cases of authorities summoning people unfit for service.
