On Tuesday, October 1, the autumn conscription started in Russia and the occupied territories. The Russian army plans to recruit at least 133,000 conscripts. The compulsory measures will also affect Crimea, where this is the 20th mobilization campaign since the beginning of the occupation of the peninsula. It is expected that at least 3,000 people may be called up for service as part of this campaign.<\/p>\n
The forced mobilization of residents of the occupied Crimea is a violation of international law and the Geneva Convention, which prohibits the occupying power from forcibly recruiting the population of the occupied territories into its army.<\/p>\n
Anyone who becomes part of this system risks becoming an accomplice to an international crime, as participation in the armed forces of the occupying country can have serious consequences for the recruit.<\/p>\n
No one in Crimea should become an accomplice to the international crime committed by Russians in Ukraine. After all, Crimea will soon be liberated and justice will be restored. Everyone will be punished.<\/p>\n
But what should you do if you have been handed a subpoena or have already been mobilized?<\/p>\n
As a reminder, the Crimean Tatar Resource Center has launched an information campaign called \u201cGrave mobilization\u201d, in which we inform\u00a0 what one should do in case if you have been handed a subpoena or you have been mobilized, how to sabotage mobilization, etc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
