Volgograd residents ask Putin to recall their relatives from frontline

A group of Volgograd residents have recorded a video appeal to President Vladimir Putin, in which they asked him to help so that their relatives, who had been sent to the military operation zone as part of the mobilization, were not sent to the frontline. The women have explained that their husbands and children lack the proper combat skills; many have health problems, but they were sent to the frontline without any medical examination.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that Vitaly Kandalov, a mobilized Volgograd resident, managed to get a medical examination only through a court. The medical board decided to downgrade Kandalov's status to "limited fit for military service."

In the above appeal, the mother of one of the mobilized men said that her son was wounded in the head and sent to a hospital in Volgograd; but they are going to send him back to the frontline, despite his severe headaches, the "Kavkaz.Realii"* project reports.
