The level of fear reached the maximum: how the Kursk operation of the Armed Forces affected the Russians
At the same time, the Russian generals emphasized that there would be no new mobilization. Despite this, the fear of the Russians increases. Thus, according to the Levada Center, in August, 46% of Russians feared that the authorities could again declare a mass call for war against Ukraine. It is reported that the proportion of those who do not exclude a new wave of mobilization have almost equal the Russians who do not have such fears, which is 48%.
"For comparison, in February, the second was almost twice as much as the first - 34% of respondents feared new mobilization, and they did not expect it 59%," journalists said. The material states that the level of "mobilization fear" among the Russians has reached a maximum since September 2023. Thus, during that period of repetition of mass call to the war, 59% of Russians feared.
Although in the first days of a full -scale war, most of them were convinced that the Kremlin would cost regular troops, and only 28% of respondents were afraid of mobilization. We will remind, the major of the reserve of the Armed Forces Alexei Hetman explained why the offensive in the Kursk region slowed. According to him, Kiev conducted a successful campaign on misinformation of the enemy, which helped secretly prepare for the offensive and occupy part of the Russian region.
