Ramzan Kadyrov, the Chechnya governor, has decided not to mobilise men in his region, local news channel reports.

Kadyrov says Chechnya has “surpassed the quota by 254%”, over 20,000 Chechens have already taken part in combat.

Kadyrov said yesterday that he was discontent with Russia swapping Ukraine’s Azov fighters for Putin’s ally Medvedchuk.
