Russian Defense Strategic Shifts

Russian military reservists will now have to secure petroleum plants against unmanned assaults after the Russian leader enacted a decree on the weekday extending their entanglement in the war effort. The Russian ruler also enacted a decree authorizing recruitment all year round whereas previously it was possible only during specific times in cooler seasons.
