Russian campaign targets men for Ukraine conflict.

Russia has launched a new recruitment campaign to replenish its troops for the war in Ukraine, with advertisements promising cash bonuses and enticing benefits, recruiters making cold calls to eligible men, and enlistment offices working with universities and social service agencies to lure students and the unemployed. The Kremlin's war machine badly needs new recruits as fighting grinds on in Ukrainian battlegrounds, and both sides prepare for counteroffensives that could cost even more lives. A mobilization in September of 300,000 reservists sent panic throughout the country, since most men under 65 are formally part of the reserve.
