Russia's new law to enlist more people into armed forces

"As the Russia-Ukraine war entered its fourth month in May, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law enabling people over 40 to enlist in the armed forces.

The move is expected to help Moscow to recruit more civilian experts for the war in Ukraine. The Russian army had previously set age limits for national and foreign army recruits. The limit for Russians was 18-40 years while the limit for foreigners was 18-30  years." WION
