The Russian General Staff announced that conscripts who have completed their mandatory service will be discharged to the reserve on schedule. It also confirmed that new conscripts called up in autumn, totaling 135,000, will not be deployed to the special military operation zones including Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson regions. This affects military personnel management and signals a distinction between conscripts and active combat deployments in ongoing conflict areas.
