Mobilised reservists given military training

STORY: The recruits were shown with their newly-assigned weapons, as well as being put through their paces in training on manoeuvring and handling weapons during battlefield operations.

"All mobilised military personnel comply with the standards for shooting from small arms. In addition, citizens called up from the reserve restore their skills in the operation and maintenance of weapons, military and special equipment," the Defense ministry said on its Telegram channel in reference to training at another military facility in Kaliningrad. The ministry said training has also been held to increase firing skills and prepare military personnel for "confident actions on the battlefield".
