The Ministry of Defense sent SMO participants on their first vacations

The ministry's message notes that all participants in the special operation can go on vacation for two weeks.

It's worth reminding that Russian President Vladimir Putin, during his address to the Federal Assembly, stated the need to provide mobilized servicemen with a two-week vacation every six months.

The President noted that the service in the area of SMO is associated with enormous physical and psychological stress. For this reason, he instructed to establish a vacation for all participants of the SMO. The number of vacation days will not include days spent on the road.
