Numerous reports also revealed that people without military service received call-up orders, a sharp departure from Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu's assurances that only those with special military skills or combat experience would be called up, even for extremely loyal pro-Kremlinists also publicly expressed concern.

A close ally of Putin, the speakers of both houses of Congress, has made it clear that the public is outraged at how the mobilization unfolded.

Valentina Matviyenko, the head of the "Federation Council", the upper house of Russia's parliament, said she was aware of reports that some men were being called up because they were ineligible.

In a direct message to governors across Russia, Mavyanko said they had "full responsibility" for the implementation of the call-up.

"To ensure that the implementation of the partial mobilization is fully and absolutely in accordance with the listed standards, there can be no single mistake," she wrote.

Vyacheslav Volodin, the speaker of the State Duma, the lower house of the Russian parliament, also expressed concern in a Telegram post.

"There are complaints all the time. If mistakes are made, they must be corrected... Governments at all levels should understand their responsibilities," he said.

The mobilization will call in 300,000 Russian reservists, officials said.

Two independent Russian media reported separately that the number of mobilized people would actually exceed 1 million, which the Kremlin twice denied.
