Desperate Russian wives threaten to break their husbands' BONES so they are unfit to join war as thousands of men scramble to flee country with airports crammed and huge traffic jams after conscripts are given 'four hours to pack and leave'
Men of fighting age racing to flee Russia amid fears of being conscripted
Huge queues formed at the borders with Mongolia, Finland and Georgia Travellers were interrogated at airports before they were allowed to leave
Thousands of desperate Russians are scrambling to flee the country to dodge Putin's mobilisation, as miles-long queues form to escape into border countries.
Men of fighting age are racing to avoid a potential call-up after Putin ordered Moscow's first mobilisation since World War Two, with plans to immediately start conscripting some 300,000 troops to fight on the frontline.
Many flights were sold out yesterday amid the panic, while others appeared to resort to drastic tactics to avoid the conscription, with Google searches for 'how to break an arm at home' - skyrocketing hours after Putin's speech.
A wife from Tyumen in Siberia said: 'I will not let my husband go. I'll break his both legs. His duty is to raise his children.'
The authorities issued a a special warning issued to potential recruits that they face legal sanctions if they self-harm by breaking arms or legs to avoid the call-up.
Photos and videos have also emerged of airports crowded with young men and heavy traffic near border crossings, driven by fears the country might lock down and send more civilians to war.
Yesterday, flagship carrier Aeroflot said it was not 'yet' banning young men from travelling, suggesting travel restrictions may soon be in place.
And a dramatic night time picture from Vnukovo airport in Moscow shows men trying to escape before they are prevented.

Almost all the men - mainly aged 25-35 - were summoned near to passport control for interrogation.
They were questioned on whether they had bought their ticket after the Putin mobilisation announcement, and whether they had a return ticket.
They were asked about the purpose of their trip and their military status, and if they answered satisfactorily, a female officer escorted them to the passport control and signalled to the officer that they were permitted to leave the country.
Some were then quizzed again by the FSB officer at passport control.
It is not known how many were stopped from flying.
Separately, a video showed major queues at a border crossing between Russia and Kazakhstan in the Kulunda district of Altai Region .
‘The overwhelming majority of people are Russian men,’ said an eyewitness.
‘Many do not know the procedure for crossing the border - this can be seen from their confused behaviour .
This may be real. Feeds into the “september 24th” hype too.
Daily Mail...
Psyops are all we have. We don’t have the will to actually confront Russia or China, yet Biden said that US ground forces would fight in Taiwan against China, so that’s the official US position.
They want their husbands to be cowards?
It’s Operation Mockingbird, at its best.
Understandably, they want their Russian husbands to live, not die for some Putin dream of a 'greater' Russia.
As if 11 time zones aren't enough.
Amazon searches for “sticks and stones” is way up.

Who knows what to believe anymore amidst all the propaganda. We have a story that Medvedev is ranting about using their most powerful strategic nuclear weapons...against whom? Those are intercontinental missiles, so the implied threat is against us! That’s no small thing.
Don’t tell Biden, or he might start talking about a first strike. Come on man! Who’s really in charge here, and who’s really in charge in Russia?? I want to call the whole thing a clown show, but there won’t be any hilarity if the world blows up over this.
Dumbest article yet today. LOL
This manure pile is so high I need the biohazard suit to read it.
sWill Stewart - LOL!
Someone should tell them that the dirty RuZZians don’t read their horseplop...
More CAPITALIZATION of words will add to the “truthiness” of the article.
I see that Russia is not the only country suffering from an inability to unload an insane head of state.
Their elections - everybody knows they’re fixed. As for ours, everyone knows they’re fraudulent, but won’t admit it.
Post WW2. All the dead men. Think of how much Russian women had to put up with since there were so few men left.
These Russian men have moms too. They just might have more motives.
