Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a decree on the routine spring conscription campaign, a document from the Kremlin showed on Monday.

A total of 160,000 citizens aged 18 to 30 will be drafted from April 1 to July 15, said the decree.

The conscription campaign is not linked with the special military operation in Ukraine, the Russian Defense Ministry said in a statement, adding that conscripts will be sent to permanent deployment locations of military units, formations and other military structures.

Russia conducts conscriptions twice a year, namely in spring and autumn. The spring 2024 draft saw the enlistment of 150,000 people. All men in Russia are required to participate in military service for one year or equivalent training during higher education from the age of 18.
