Is there even some big scale mobilization going on in Russia right now?

Or is this just the standard dig at Russia, because the topic is related to Russia?

Yeah, it's been big news for a couple of years now? https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/russia-military-conscription-a...

This news is about conscription they do twice a year, regardless of the war.

https://www.rnbo.gov.ua/en/Diialnist/6714.html "Total mobilisation may follow the 2024 presidential elections."

So there isn't any right now? After the partial mobilization of 2022 I don't think they mobilized more. They just rely on massive monetary incentives to get volunteers iirc. Though yeah maybe that won't last
