Vladimir Putin has drafted 130,000 conscripts into the Russian army in a desperate attempt to turn around his stalled invasion, according to western officials.
Intelligence officials believe that the conscripts will be thrown into the fight for eastern Ukraine along with Russian troops being redeployed from Georgia, parts of which they have occupied for over a decade.
The move came as the UK Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said Russia should be suspended from the UN Human Rights Council and US President Joe Biden said called for war crimes trial against the Russia President.
