The Governor announced the erroneous mobilization of 379 Volgograd residents.

Volgograd Region military enlistment offices have cancelled the mobilization of 379 residents of the region; most of them were unfit for military service due to health reasons, Governor Andrei Bocharov announced today, reporting on the completion of the first stage of mobilization.

After Putin announced a "partial mobilization" for September 2022, attempts to mobilize people who, due to age or health, should not be sent to combat zones were recorded in the Volgograd Region and other regions of southern Russia. The governor acknowledged that many of those mobilized do not meet the criteria established by Putin. However, the regional head's statement did not affect the mobilization regime in Volgograd.

State awards, memorial plaques, and appearances on Channel One do not guarantee state support for the families of those killed, according to the Caucasian Knot article "Three Comrades Served: How the Authorities Are Depriving the Families of Killed Volunteers of Benefits," which describes the stories of fighters from other regions.
