Vladimir Putin said that 'this year, on average, over a thousand people a day are enlisting' under contract in the Russian armed forces; the government has increased payments for those who enlist, with highest payment being set by the Moscow City Council

President Putin decleared that "Russia has the right to strike at countries that have supplied arms to Ukraine"
