"Russian Navalny Mourners Face Military Conscription After Tribute"

Several Russians who were detained for paying tribute to Alexei Navalny by laying flowers at memorials have reportedly been given military summonses upon their release, with some being taunted with the threat of being sent off to war. The summonses officially require the men to visit a military registration office to "clarify" their information and register, but detainees claim they were forced to sign under duress. This alarming trend comes as Moscow police deny reports of an order to identify those paying tribute to Navalny, while police in Rostov-on-Don are reportedly checking the identity documents of those laying flowers and issuing military summonses to some men.
