Russia does not rule out another wave of mobilisation – British Intelligence report

Russian authorities are likely keeping open the option of another round of call-ups under the "partial mobilisation". Source: British Defence Intelligence update on the situation in Ukraine as of 30 January 2023; European Pravda Report states that on 22 January 2023, media reported that Russian border guards were preventing dual passport holding Kyrgyz migrant workers from leaving Russia, telling the men that their names were on mobilisation lists.

Separately, on 23 January 2023, Russian presidential spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said that the decree on "partial mobilisation" continues to remain in force, claiming the decree remained necessary for supporting the work of the Armed Forces.

"The Russian leadership highly likely continues to search for ways to meet the high number of personnel required to resource any future major offensive in Ukraine, while minimising domestic dissent," British Defence Intelligence report states.  Background: NATO believes that the countries of the Alliance should prepare for the fact that Ukraine will need help for a long time, as Vladimir Putin is preparing for a long war.
