This is the Putin equivalent to Stalins purges. The press ganged soldiers are intended to be killed. Ethnic cleansing of problematic minorities, removal of anyone who might fight back against the system. No deportations, gulags, or bullets to the back of the head. They will also serve to keep up the pretense of war while the destruction of civilians and infrastructure continues
