Putin issued a thinly veiled threat about using all means possible to defend Russian territory in his speech last week, stressing that he was “not bluffing.”

At least 100 people there have been arrested in the regional capital of Makhachkala, according to OVD-Info, an independent Russian human rights group. CNBC has not been able to independently verify the numbers.

Dagestan is a predominantly Muslim region in the mountainous Russian Caucasus, and is overwhelmingly poor. The province has suffered the highest death toll among its troops sent to fight in Ukraine than any other Russian province, At least 2,000 people have been arrested in anti-mobilization protests since Wednesday. Putin has said that 300,000 military reservists will be called up for what he still calls a"special military operation" in Ukraine.The first troops in Russia's"partial mobilization" wave have started arriving at military bases, and the country will struggle to arm and train them all properly, security analysts say.

"Unlike most Western armies, the Russian military provides low-level, initial training to soldiers within their designated operational units, rather than in dedicated training establishments," Britain's Ministry of Defense wrote in its daily intelligence update on Twitter. "The lack of military trainers, and the haste with which Russia has started the mobilisation, suggests that many of the drafted troops will deploy to the front line with minimal relevant preparation. They are likely to suffer a high attrition rate," the ministry wrote.Find out more about the UK government's response:

Scary thought 1. US classified material stolen BY 45. 2. Multiple in field agents and informamts KIA not too long afterwards. Probably many in Russia. 3. US vs Russia; nuclear posturing right now. US walking into a trap, does Russia already have the means to win?

Sullivan says Putin's moves show Russia is 'struggling badly' in UkraineWhite House national security adviser Jake Sullivan said Sunday that Russian President Vladimir Putin's recent call-up of reservists into the military does not signal growing strength, but rather that the Russians are 'struggling badly' in the ongoing war.

That's what he has wanted all along. Biden admin to corrupt to negotiate an end; bleeding $ Putin cares nothing about any nation's condemnation. He'll do Putin till the day he does.

Retired general: Intercepted intelligence reveals two things about Putin - CNN VideoBrig. Gen. Mark Kimmitt (Ret.) responds to a CNN report that Russian President Vladimir Putin is personally giving directions to Russian forces on the ground in Ukraine. Watch his reaction: Yawn Wow, for real? I don't believe it It will be foolish to repeat what Hitler did as ' intuition driven megalomania!' They have not invested in synergy and security parameters of military operations/ logistics. It is too late for leadership to extricate. They may resort to strategic 'overkill'.

Russia’s Annexation Moves, Nuclear Threats Raise Stakes in UkraineThe U.S. and Russia are entering a risky period in which existing guardrails for averting military escalation over Ukraine are facing challenges, U.S. officials say US need bear no risks. Our involvement is increasing risk of major war. We need to consider Ukraine as analogous to Cuban missile crisis, because this is way Russia sees it. Russia will not accept Ukraine as part of West. Thank GOD we have a levelheaded President who is not Putin’s lap DOG. No risk at all. This war will continue for years to come and Russia will fail.
